A very Crary Christmas!

It’s a very Crary Christmas for our on-ice team in Antarctica! After several weeks of weather delays preventing them getting out to our deep-field camp at Crary Ice Rise, on Christmas Eve the team received the best possible present – a Basler flight to Crary! With the majority of our team now on site (5072_2), it’s full steam ahead towards drilling for sediment core from deep beneath 500 m of ice.
