January, 2010:

We're well into winter and it appears that everything is working great up in Barrow. We think that this is the first year where all the sensors are working correctly (knock on wood!).

Imnavait is humming along quite well, however, the recent cold temperatures have sapped the batteries at the Gradient Tower. We should be back on line thanks to our good friends up at UAF.
