Samples-aweigh

Today was our last moss-rolling, sledge weilding,  dirt road wandering day. With a grand total of 98 samples packed away in the red-hot ford focus we're heading to Rovaniemi tomorrow to prepare our samples to be shipped to Canada. Then comes a short flight to Helsinki and on Tuesday evening I'll be back home in Canada!

The weather has clearly changed in recent days. You can feel the cold is arriving - we spotted some well equipped speed walkers with mittens this afternoon (although mittens were not at all necessary).

Now, I'm looking forward to seeing what these rocks have to say!
