(22 - 28 Sept. 2014)
The ice camp
Construction of the FRAM-2014/15 ice camp was completed on Saturday (see picture). The direction of the ice drift relative to our target area have allowed us to invest about 2 weeks of full attention to obtain a net 128 square meter area of protected working conditions at a reasonable price. All the building materials are locally derived, except for tarps from sail maker Iversen, Bergen, some 2" x 4" lumber and a few sheets of plywood.
