A little warmer today with a high of 80 and less of a breeze, although there was a small dust devil through the site this afternoon.  Sam joined the ISS team this morning (and Halle joined the ISFS crew).  The 449 MHz Modular Wind profiler was the last ISS instrument still running and we shut it down this morning, and spent most of the day dismantling and packing it.   The RF amplifier, antennas, RASS, and clutter fence went into the lidar seatainer, most of the other components will go into the ISS1 container tomorrow.  We also did some packing and organizing of other equipment (monitors, network routers, cables etc), prepared the rack in ISS1, and some final data backups.  Josh helped out the ISFS crew this afternoon.

Two trucks came today.  The first truck this morning picked up the MPDs and the two Halo lidars that we leased, plus our CL61 ceilometer back to Boulder.  Later in the day, a second truck took the Helium cylinders back to Airgas in Chico.
