Pleasant Solstice
Well, back from Nome. It was a fun day and a half. The weather out there was great despite the forecast. Nice and sunny. Could have used a little more wind though...

So, Monday Kristin and I visited the Snake River, one of the gold rush rivers just outside of Nome where I downloaded data from our stream gage and she recorded a velocity profile of the river, fighting bugs all the way of course:

Then this morning, because we forgot a crucial couple pieces of stuff we headed back out to the Kuzitrin River to put in the staff gage:

On the way out we got a flat but our truck was brand new so I got to christen the spare tire. In the picture I'm attaching the pressure transducers so we can get continuous water level readings.
