Returned after midnight, and talked with
Dave Norton until 1:30. He is having trouble
directing his efforts - don't know how it will

We were awaken by A.R.L. people
wanting us to move to hut 169 - our home
for the remainder of the summer. That took
all of the morning and part of the afternoon.
By then, as a result of short sleep and
an injected finger, I felt lousy. Remained
that way for the rest of the day.
It was sunny, but cool today. Again
not too much melt, although it seemed
to be warming up again by about midnight.

Barrow, Alaska
Slept in, and felt better for it.
Went out with Pitelka to do habitat
transects. Stopped by lagoon at junction of
gasoline and main roads, where sandpipers
were feeding. Left Pitelka and did III A-B,
IV A-B, I+II, then picked him up on the
way back to camp. Went out the
other way and did I+II, III+VIII, IV+VI.
