Logged to 3261.7 feet, a pallet of core boxes ready for storage

When we finished logging yesterday, we had reached a depth of 3261.7 ft.  This is 134.1 ft in a single day, it certainly helps when you have four people logging!  Over the next couple months we'll have three people logging almost every day of the week, so we should have the preliminary logging of the first phase of drilling complete by the end of July.
After logging is complete, we stack, wrap, and strap the boxes on a pallet in this trailer so they can be brought up to the drill site and be put into storage.  This stack shows the last 48 of the PQ core boxes on top of the 30 shallowest HQ boxes.  My rough estimate of the weight of each pallet is ~3000 pounds (~1360 kg).
