-Blende Camp-


-Gayna River Camp-


Happy Solstice everyone,

I hope everyone enjoyed the longest day of the year today. It is definitely a long day up here it is 10:30 pm here and the sun is still going strong, come to think of it the sun has not get weak since I have been here. Today is day 16 since I left Edmonton and it feels like I have just left. The drill has not even started to turn yet; everything that could have been broken on it was I think. Hopefully it will be a go tomorrow and we can all start to do what we come out here to do. Right now it is just “camp improvement”.
Melissa is doing good out at Gayna River, I chatted with her the other night. Other than the 12x14 floors for 14x16 tents and the bit of water that they found in their tents, it sounds as if everything is going well… I think it sounds worse than it really is. The photographs that I posted tonite are of Gayna River Camp (Melissa) at top and Blende Camp (Micheal) at bottom. The Blende camp may be hard to see, but it is the bottom of the valley. Melissa sent back some photos that she took on the flight over to Gayna River and there are some spectacular mountains, some of the most beautiful that I have seen, I hope I can see them for myself sometime.
Well, off to bed for me and hopefully tomorrow I will be looking at rocks that no human has ever set eyes on. That is if the drill decides it is going to work.

Cheers,
mike.
