              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: G.Saurage
Got about an inch of snow on site before sunset. It was very wet snow so when the
temps dropped after sunset everything froze; so there's a nice coating of ice on
everything outside. Fog most of 1st half, high winds second.
Roof heaters on. Dome parked south.
