On The Land: Photos from Copper Pass

Here are some of the photos from copper pass that I could not load when in Yellowknife.

The prospectors cabin, and our shelter in the event that the twin otter does not return.

The Main showing trench # 2 (from the hill top)

Closer view of trench # 2

(that's me going inside to take gamma readings and to measure the depth of the water)

This shot sort of covers the main body of the site. the camp (where the plane lands) is in the center middle on the point of land, the main showing is straight up on the right (under the edge of the engine cover), the west showing is on the far right, middle, where the two points of land meet. the "Pond Area" is near the exhaust of the engine if on the backside of the small pond. there were several small trenches in this area. And the east showing is off shot to the left of the pond area. our days started with landing at the camp and then walking up-hill through the woods and marshes to the area we were inspecting that day and then tracing our way back to the camp to await the arrival of the twin.
