Kemess Mine Redux.
Hello Everyone I am at the
Kemess Mine again. The trip here was actually pretty good. The logging road was very smooth, hard packed and icy in some spot. Tire chains were a must this time. Over the journey here the temperature in the trailer fell to 25f. Upon arrival the trailer was put on steam. I will suggest with the organizers of this account to have the truck stop in Edmonton Ab. and have the trailer steamed there, so we could deliver the load at temperature and the customer would not be put out. I arrived at about 13:00pt on Friday and the trailer has only got up to 40f as of 18:00pt Saturday evening. They need to get the trailer to about 60f for the product to move. I think I maybe here for a few days. The weather here is great, clear sky's and very cold temperatures. It is Sunday Nov. 26Th and this morning it was -37c and tomorrow it is predicted to be -40c and that is without the wind chill. The snow is
magnificent and the mountains are too. It is really dark here; that may seem like a stupid thing but in a large metropolis you have light pollution and you never see the night sky. Another thing that is good is the sky is clearer, along the most populated areas you have pollution in the air, none of that
exists here. These picture were taken out the back door of the living quarter. It was to bloody cold to go off and if I could were would I go. Other than the support staff at the camp I am it., everyone else is at there work areas. The look I get from some people is weird, I think they think that I am high up at on the totem poll. I was wearing my Hi Viz yellow jacket and I was talking on the satellite phone and it was like Moses parting the sea. People turned and duck into were ever they were and went back to work. Little do they know how low I really am. Enough banter for one day, I will update if things change.
