Whitehorse, Beaver Creek
By the time we were back to Whitehorse, Panya already download the data from the Whitehorse permafrost station.
Data shows very warm permafrost! (you can download from our web site.!
Takhini Hot Springs is a nice hot spring close to Whitehorse, about 20 min away. Tohru and Kenji soaked in the outside pool and celebrated the succsseful Canada field trip.
However, on the way back to Alaska, Winter finally caught up with us! driving in the slippery snow was difficult and slow.
The Beaver Creek permafrost station was also already covered by snow.
We just download the data and changed batteries, and then crossed the border to the US.
