CEOS researchers spotted at 2024 European Polar Science Week in Copenhagen. Way to go, Dave & Jeff! @ceos_um @RiddellFaculty @um_research @egripcamp

Not active on twitter anymore, but this is an important one. Check out the fabric development through Greenland´s biggest ice stream based on >1200 thin section measurements conducted at @egripcamp.

A final goodbye from the last 2024 EGRIP team on arrival in Kangerlussauq: Sepp, Mori, Nicholas, Anders S, Martin, Grant, Iben, Lee, Kyra, JP, Sverrir, Knut, Andrew, and Anders KH.

Nice picture of Dome with Halo by Iben.

Outdoor morning exercises is a daily event for the young and sporty EGRIP segment.

Martin went out kite skiing under todays dark, low-hanging clouds.

The Pistenbully is squeezing into its winter home.

All in place on winter hills well separated to avoid piling up of drift snow.

Sepp sneaks away with the PolyPod also for winter storage.

Cabin and belts of broken Pistenbully goes onto another winter hill.

The main generator goes into hibernation in its insulated box on a sledge on a snow hill.

All Weatherports are now loaded onto the sledge where they will spend the winter on a snow hill.

The last Weatherport has been disassembled and packed into boxes by a very efficient team of highly skilled personel, then it was driven away by JP in the Cat.

The new snow hill in town is now used for storage of two retro pallets, Westa snow blower, tiller and large snow melter. In the background the perfectly groomed skiway.

Anders KH is fighting a muskox leg in the kitchen … while Kyra is fighting the onions

Another great drone shot of the radar team heading out of camp.

Great drone picture of camp.

The big snow melter has never been as clean and tidy as now.

Polar bear tracks some 22 km NW of camp as seen Saturday at noon.
