Above: what it looks like collecting the daily weather data at 5 in the morning. The snow board is bottom left, snow pole in front of the tower, the scale to convert snow weight into inches of water on the pole (with a bag over it), the precipitation bucket is back left on the post (with the dangling things around it), and the web camera on top of the pipe on the right just above the light. Looks a little like the moon landing (and feels just as otherworldly).
