(It was much easier than at Chirikof Island). We were able to get a boat right up to the island to transfer personnel and gear. This allowed us to work together and get everything done much quicker and with more ease. All of this was installed in the same area.

I had to do some prep work for it last night and write up boat sheets so they would know where to go. Today, we have two boats out surveying on my assigned sheet. It was a beautiful day and a nice treat to get to go on land. On Saturday we spent the entire day on a nearby island installing a tide gauge and base station. We have been working at our survey area in the Shumagin Islands for the past week.
