Matt and Gary visited the site in the morning, leaving Gothic around 9 and arriving at the site about 10.  Matt swapped the USB sticks for the LIDAR Pis at tower d, Gary swapped them at ue.  Matt brushed snow off the NR01 at uw.  Matt also inspected the TRH at 1m on tower c and saw that the inlet was clear of the snow, so we didn't think anything needed to be done about that.  Matt took a picture which he can post at some point.

The barrel is buried under several inches of snow, I had to probe around to find it, but we did not dig it out.  No visible sign of slack in the guy lines.  Did not browse or log into any DSMs, since everything had been operational when Matt checked the data from the hut before leaving.

We arrived back at Gothic around noon.  Due to the strong winds forecast for the next day, we decided to ski back to the car that afternoon.  We left Gothic around 2:15 and started driving home around 4:30.
