Uzon, Day Seven
Sarah and Albert managed to finish the DNA extractions last night, much to everyone's relief. Early that morning, we were visited by another bear, which we caught on video this time.
As we started packing up our gear, we got word that the helicopter would be arriving to pick us up around mid-morning, rather than mid afternoon as we had expected. A furious scramble to pack everything up began, and Frank set off into the field alone to retrieve enrichment cultures that we hadn't collected yesterday.
I tried my best to stay out of the way, since I had already mostly packed up the day before (no great accomplishment -- I didn't bring much in the first place). All of my samples were already safely stowed with Albert's. In retrospect, I should have gone with Frank to help him, but he vanished almost the instant we heard the thwak-thwak of the helicopter coming over the caldera wall.

Just as we finished packing the helicopter, Frank came charging over the ridge from Central Thermal Field carrying all the enrichment samples he could find.

Amazingly, we only left a few things behind. A small digital camera, my toothbrush, and a few enrichment samples that sank too deep into one of the springs. Later on, Albert was able to retrieve the samples and the camera by joining the workshop excursion. He did not retrieve my toothbrush.
Karymsky volcano erupted again on our flight back. A most majestic farewell.
On our flight back, Karymsky volcano erupted again, again just as we flew past. It was a majestic farewell indeed.
I really, really regretted having to leave Uzon. It was a privilege and an honor to have gone, and to have gone with such company. In the next weeks and months I will have to work very hard; perhaps a big enough scientific payoff might justify a return trip. I certainly hope so!
