Lake Bonney

Over the Glacier from Lake Hoare, sits Lake Bonney ....

and the remainder of our streams: Lawson, Priscu (named after researcher John Priscu), Lyons and Santa Fe. We will also visit Blood Falls (more on this later)....

We will have now visited our entire complement of Streams for the first time .....and will begin our rotation visiting each stream one time/week to collect water flow measurements and collect samples....

Below is our map of Taylor Valley -- consisting of Lake Fyrxell, Lake Bonney, and Lake Hoare -- can you find them? The red markers are the stream sites at each of the Lakes......

The Stream sites are named according to the Lake they drain. For example, F1 = Canada Stream. It is the first stream on Fyrxell and flows out of Canada Glacier. Our sites are named: F1, F2, F3, F4 ....F10; H1, H2; B1-B4 -- can you figure out which stream goes with which number??? (Test will come later...)

Here is the "team" ready to work:

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
