Müller Ice Cap Daily Report Monday April 28

 Daily Report for the 28 April 2025

The good weather continues and we have had a very productive day. We had some problems with some powered cables on the winch during the morning. This was repaired by Grant and Kevin and drilling could continue. During the weekend the ECM instrument from Icefield failed and we have not been able to measure ECM on the cores from today. This reduces the logging work and we have started to work  in teams of three instead of four.

The extra person in camp has allowed us to pack food for MARS, make a new outdoor toilet and groom the skiway.

What we have done:

-Drilled 12 runs from 238.74 m to  258.02

-Logged and O18 sampled bags 239 to 258

-Made a new outdoor toilet

-Packed food for MARS

-Measured that there can be 78 ice core boxes in the Viessmann

-Repaired a loose connection on the winch cables

-Groomed the skiway
