It’s storm outside. The snow drift looks like Barrow! but not Shaktoolik yet!! Shaktoolik is one of the strongest and continuos windy place in AK!
However, Fox tunnel excavation is on schedule… going on today.
Now it looks tunnel, right!?
WE can see ice wedge at right (also celling)
Buried wood (next of ice wedge) start emerged
Segregation ice
more wood! I guess about 30,000-40,000 year ago!
Some frost contraction cavity! ice crystal growing in this cavity over 20,000-30,000 years!
