Arrived in Barrow

Wow.  Barrow was incredible.
I meant to keep an active blog while I was here but obviously failed miserably.  I'll try to do better in Antarctica.  Instead, how about I just leave you with some incredible photos (courtesy of Chris Linder).... really that's all you wanted anyways.
My blowing snow collection tower (aka Snowcatcher 2000)
Sweet Aurora Borealis
It's damn cold (i.e. -40 cold)
Don't forget, there is ocean underneath
Can you find the polar bear?
Sweet brinesicles
Scientific taste sampling (quite salty)
All of my gear I had to take back home.  I think airline agents and TSA were ready to kill me.  It was quite the scene that afternoon in Manchester Airport.
