Photo-of-the-Day – 13 June 2008
We had amazingly lovely weather today – only -9°C and not a breath of wind. Truly, compared to the recent -20-something with heavy winds we’ve been having, it felt balmy. Despite the darkness, Sanki and I decided to get out and have some exercise. Taking cross-country ski’s, we went over to the winter depot to check on the containers and caboose stored there. It was interesting skiing in the darkness, with only a slight glow on the northern horizon despite being around midday, but the exercise was good and the skis treated us well. With almost no visual references and no contrast, we really sensed every ripple in the snow and ice through our skis as we glided along.
