Well, this is my last full day here at Nivek Camp. Sometimes I wondered if this day would ever come but looking back now, the time has gone pretty fast. We now have snow regularly although it never lasts long. The flying days are getting less attractive and the days get shorter every day by 20-30 minutes. I still have not seen any starry skies yet, as they have mostly been overcast and the lights from camp blot things out.
I've been helping people deal with colds lately as they are going around camp. I've managed to stay healthy through it so far.
Yesterday was busy with fuel and various tasks around camp. It was good to be outside most of the day and be busy. Tired me out as well. I got to clip on a load using the "belly hook" which sits just under the helicopter. The chopper was inches above my head hovering while I attached a net with a load of empty fuel barrels to move over to the dock. No long line was available, as shown in the picture here.
That's all for now.
