In the last few years I've had much less field work and that made me even lazier about keeping this blog up to date. So here are some good intentions to catch up again. These are a few pictures from returning to Malaspina Glacier to pick up GPS stations and measure mass balance poles.

 |
| A little farther east we got a nice view of where Sitkagi Lagoon has formed with a series of other lakes that cut through the vegetation and dirt-covered ice. |

| Revisiting a GPS station. When we left it in July, the antenna was level with the surface, about 4 m of melt. |
 |
| Ice is also melting where it is covered by debris. Victor is measuring a stake that was level with the surface when we drilled it in July. |
