Earthwatch Team - Snow style

So it's February and time for an Earthwatch team to investigate Climate Change at Arctic's Edge with Dr. Peter Kershaw and a team of volunteer research assistants. This year we had great weather from February 14 - 24, 2011 and spent a great time introducing folks from 10 different countries to the joy of snowmachine rides and life in a parka.
