We now have a well cavity, and well pump installed. The well pump is vital – circulating water through the system, pumping an endless supply to drill our main borehole right through the 580m ice shelf. It was all hands on deck to ensure a safe and successful install! 📷Ana Tovey

About a year ago I set up the ❄️Glaciology❄️ feed on here, so I figured I should create a starter pack too for all the new arrivals 🙂 Follow and share! go.bsky.app/EQnch6n
