A science group needed to take some sea water sampled but we still have a lot of sea ice so a safe path was probed and flagged onto the sea ice. After they took their samples the flagged route was opened up for the rest of station to go on a little walk out onto the sea ice.
This is crossing the transition zone, where the tides break up the ~30 cm sea ice where it meets the shore line.
It was a good little after dinner walk.
The arch berg is slowly leaving us.
