For those who are interested in observations that may or may not be related to TDC...
On my way from Tim Hortons to the airport today, I noticed two tractor-trailers waiting for the departure slot time to start up the ice road. These were unusual in that they are a CONNORS drill rig. The distinctive light blue, but a larger size set-up than we see in the TDC pictures. On one trailer, was the drill rig with box, the second rig was a smaller support box, two skidoos and two loads of cut firewood. These may be another drill being mobilized and sent to Big Sky, or for drilling deeper at Ormsby, or to change out and existing rig for maintenance, or for another exploration firm altogether.
Just giving you some visuals from the Yellowkinfe scene. We'll see if it proves relevant.
