[introduction]
Mt Erebus Saddle is one of the three drilling targets planned for season 2004/05. Due to bad weather that shortened the field time available, we were not able to set up camp at this site. A one-day site reconnaissance included a GPS and GRP survey and initial investigation of the snow properties from a shallow snow pit and core. The results from this initial investigation suggest that the proposed drilling site has the necessary characteristics for a suitable drilling site.
