Happy #FieldworkFriday! New station METAL needed a visit to fix a power issue that presented itself once snowy winter conditions had set in. Sites that work well in spring/summer/fall weather can sometimes act up in the winter. Any day we visit a site on skis is a good day!

Happy #FieldworkFriday! Snow blocked trucks, but our field techs hiked a mile with tools & solar panels slung over them like pack mules to up to OSR. This site also relays two others to Lake Quinault School and is a critical part of our network on the Olympic Peninsula.
