The snow on the moraine and road was very deep. Here you can just see the top of the GPS antenna (which is on a tripod!) and the camera.

after a lot of digging we reached the dGPS box so we could copy the data

we usually use the ladder to get up to the balcony where our reference station lives – but there was so much snow we could just walk up!
The panel wifi antenna had self-destructed but the long range WiFi was still ok.
