Comments

The resupply of Davis Station recommenced yesterday after being curtailed for 24 hours due to a weather front bringing some snow and high winds. The ship is now being emptied of some 100 cubic metres of dry mix concrete which will be used on station for the construction of a new waste management facility.

RTA (Return to Australia) cargo is being back loaded on the barge and returned to the ship.

Davis summering expeditioners are readying themselves for transport to the ship

Cheers

Tony and Simon
