An extremely hazy morning and warmer today. We will continue our 10cm pass from W to E today - finishing higher areas on the east side of the NT2 northern extensions. We will then begin a new pass.
The staircase required another overhaul today and we extended it appropriately. The ash continues downward and a small orange stain was exposed on the west side of the trench today. This stain was completely enclosed in the locus, possibly the result of burrowing in the nearby animal burrows.
