NWP Expedition Team Update - April 15, 8:25 AM PT

The Northwest Passage Expedition team has woken up in good spirits and is setting course for the Wilmot Islands across expected smooth ice. Conditions are overcast, which makes it hard to see the shape of the terrain at times. This was a problem often seen during lunar traverses, when the Sun was in a position that did not create long shadows. However, weather is due to improve and the NWP Expedition crew is looking forward to a great drive!
