Wind

We are at the very end of the intensive sampling period of the Ienisei. Finally, “sampling on ice” was easier than sampling on water. Indeed strong winds made the sampling impossible during several days. It is impressive to see waves of several meters on the river. We still managed to sample and are confident on having a good record of the spring flood.
Allison left for Krasnoyarsk then Tura yesterday.
Today, 3rd of June, polar day and…snow…a classical question here: “when can we say that was the last snow of the season or the first one of next”.
