Hydro boys hard at work


We've reported a number of things on the blog that the hydro team have had a bit of input to. I spotted the guys browsing through some photos of the Tangiwai webcam installation this morning and thought it worth sharing with you.

The site is clearly in a rather hostile environment (not talking about the military maneuvers) and making the site robust is quite important. Remember its out there 24/7 and we expect it to work regardless of conditions.

The other thing that this photo brought home for me... was how much 'stuff' the hydro boys carry around. So much so, they can't fit it all inside and need roof pods. No wonder you get the big trucks guys! I know I keep promising it, but the Akitio cam is getting closer now - watch this space!!!
