Summary:
A drilling camp was established at Lake Vida by B-211 which utilized new drilling technologies to retrieve samples from this pristine ice-covered lake. After the camp was removed, UNAVCO accompanied a member of the team to obtain a precise coordinate for the borehole location. A base station was set up, however the borehole could not be re-located because of melting and refreezing of the lake ice surface.
