Comments
Whilst we're moving forward, progress is slow. A helicopter reconnaissance flight last night showed us a few options, including a lead to the north which we are now making our way towards. The forecast winds from the east south east are now building and visibility is reducing as the blowing snow increases. We have a fund raising quiz night tonight which will keep us amused and raise a few dollars for Camp quality. Lots of people are brushing up on their maths as mathematician Prof. Ken Golden from the University of Utah will be our host!
Cheers
Andy, Brett
