I arrived at Pavilion Lake this afternoon, and it’s as beautiful a place as I remember. Coming to the lake is always a special time of year and it’s great to see everyone on the team that you’ve missed over the past year.

This blog entry is about how you can keep up to date with the activities of the PLRP during this year’s field season. Through this blog we will provide daily updates about our science activities (both DeepWorker-based and surface-based). These blogs will include photos, videos and maps generated from our dives, and will be our primary communication tool during the field season. Our public calendar is available on our website, and will include important announcements from the team. You can also follow us on Twitter and Facebook by clicking the “Follow Me” link on the right of this page.

If you are in the local area of Pavilion Lake, we will host our Annual Community Open House on Saturday July 11 at 7:00PM, all are welcome to attend. Here we provide a short presentation about the ongoing science activities and give you a chance to meet the science and exploration team.  For more info about community day, please email me (brcowie@ucalgary.ca) and I’ll try to get you the information you need!

I’m looking forward to a great science and exploration season at Pavilion Lake. Good luck to all the DeepWorker pilots for successful flights and great science returns!
