Summary: Made boardwalk to auto cam, filled 7700 wash reservoir, all okay.

Mayberry

I arrived about 13:45. The clouds were beginning to break but it was still cool with a breeze from the west. The Wetland looks brown in comparison to the surrounding fields.

I worked on improving access to the auto camera. I built a small boardwalk. It could use some more work but should suffice for the short term.

I filled the 7700 wash reservoir and replaced the backup DI water at the site. The 7700 read 2.00ppm and 52% RSSI – I did not clean the mirrors. The heater settings were 4% power, 2C above ambient, 30% RSSI, 2000 to 0600.

At 2:39 and 7500 read 401ppm CO2, 570 mmol/m3 H2O, 43.8 AGU.

I did not fix the data line out to the tule tower. I might try a radio solution.
