12/23/2010 Day 3: Preparing Our Site

 After sorting out our cargo and moving them to our site (for System 3), we set up a scott tent so we can take a rest because the station building is too far to go back while we work here.

 

It took almost one entire day just to sort out our cargo and move them to a place where our system will be installed. Certainly the cold weather and the high altitude make things that would be very trivial otherwise very hard.
