Nexen's Camp and Ice Bridge

[Drache]

Eurocopter AS365 Dauphin


We fly into camp on these!


Looking straight across the ice bridge


Looking across towards the east ramp


Part of my room


More of my room


Last of my room! We even have our own private bathrooms! No sharing!


My lovely view out my window


During one of our many blizzards


Wind was just howling!


Very ominous


Hard to see but they are strengthening the bridge! They drill a hole in the bridge and insert a pump! They pump water onto the top of a section of the bridge, then move along until they cover the entire bridge, then let it freeze! The bridge can currently support 62,000KG and 80,000KG is the limit they want to reach!


Here's where I work when I'm not outside talking to trucks


What my trailer looks like inside


My comfy reclining couch!


Full kitchen


Flat screen TV with DVD player and surround sound system! We had satellite TV with every channel but the wind knocked it out and they are too busy to come fix it


Where I sit most of the night making my lowly $6800 a month


Ok I took a picture of this sign because it's infamous! During a wind storm with gusts up to 80km/h I was standing about 15 feet away from this sign. I turned around in time to catch this sign flying at my right to the face. Knocked me on my ass and I seen those little cartoon flying birds around my head! My face caused one of those dents!


My truck! A whole 2500km! Piece of junk Ford... literally!


My Ice rescue gear! Those suits are worth $700 a piece and that yellow Rapid Deployment Craft is worth something like $6000!

And a naked lady behind every palm tree to!    Now you really are very COOL!  (I think I see your face in that sign... )

Neat stuff!

But don't forget the neighbours
