The snow has melted significantly and the drills are turning (mostly). The weather is rather crummy (+4 and light rain) which is par for the course. The days are long (21 hours of sunshine) this means waking up at 2AM and getting dressed thinking that its time to get to work. Here are few pictures of camp to show you our outstanding accomadations.

The old and the new: In the background is an old Mercedes Unimog and in the forground the brand new Kubota. 
Our toilets... Dont be fooled by the antique oak seat; this is no old fashioned contraption. This device is called a "propane toilet" and is designed to incinerate your waste. This saves us having to install a complicated and costly sewage treatment system (other alternatives are considerably less desirable). If the wind is blowing in just the right direction, a pleasant odour can be detected in camp. Take my word for it; using this toilet is nothing like doing your job while sitting on a barbecue.
