Comments
Completed ice station 10 and some flying yesterday. Now waiting improvement in weather and ice to recover AWS buoy and data from station 4 to finish program. Ice reconnaissance this morning before deteriorating weather located buoy, but showed no easily navigable route. Severe ice conditions at several points along the 20 mile track to the buoy. Buoy and data can be recovered by helicopter if weather improves. Waiting.
