Today was Instrument Recovery Day. Meaning...we have sited various instruments in various locations during the week, and since we are leaving tomorrow, we need to get them! The SODAR team headed NW to recover the SODAR, which took MANY willing hands to drag into place since the ground was so soft from the monsoonal rains. A second team headed to Merriam Powell to pack up the radiometer, and also recover the RAWS we set up. The third team has the easiest job - a quick dash 10 miles east of town to grab a second RAWS that has been out since Tuesday.
So we are now in possession of large amounts of data and three dirty vans. My plan for today is to gas up and clean the vans ready for tomorrow. My plan for the students is to do some data analysis! Since we haven't seen much of Flagstaff yet, we are going to head into the downtown area for lunch and a short walking tour.
Here is the RAWS site...Mt. Humphries in the background...
