Great News

After several weeks in the office, I’m back out in the field! Gina Rochefort alerted me to a scientist coming into the park this week who needed an extra assistant. Adelaide (Di) Johnson, a hydrologist from the National Forest Service, will be studying the role of nurse logs in expansion of timberline with climate change. Lots of hiking, hopefully up in the sub-alpine. It’s been awhile, so I’m pretty excited. The only downside is that I’ll be driving directly from the airport on Monday to the Research Station without stopping home to unpack/unwind. Hopefully I’ve remembered to pack everything I’ll need! I’ll blog a field report next week.
