Two weeks straight of field work is finally done.

The Pecos trip was nice, but the arctic cold about killed me and my partner. We unfortunately had the night shift, so we're standing out in the river for 12 hours straight in below freezing conditions. The first night we were out it was so cold the batteries in our headlamps stopped working so we were having to share the one that did work while the water kept rising. That was fun. Got back and I was supposed to have an easy week, but so far I've spent the whole time in the river zapping fish. But it was really nice out these past few days. And as bad as the field stuff sounds sometimes, I'd rather be doing it any day than sitting in my office.

Found out today I will be going to the Gila to do some veg surveys, which is great. Our Flagstaff office requested me. That makes me warm and tingly.
