WinterThis area isn't like the Northwest Territories where some of the best work gets done after freeze-up. Once mid-October comes you have to get out of there. Blinding snowstorms, high winds. And especially avalanche danger. No way would they get a permit to drill there during the winter season, too dangerous for the crews.
That said, it looks more and more as if this is going to be a winner. I made a pile on Eskay way back when. Some of these recent holes remind me of Eskay.
