Typed information accompanying negative: Wreckage: Years earlier a plane crash landed on T-3. I have wondered if this wreckage is the remains of that plane. Note: T-3 Photographs - Roll E B&W negatives - March 1969 This roll was developed in the darkroom in the USGS trailer on T-3. There was an enlarger in the darkroom and I made black and white prints for myself and other crew members. This is true for all of the rolls of black and white film. All photos except E-17 by Dave Scoboria.

Typed information accompanying negative: Lee Schoen, Steve Teeter (employees of Lamont) and I hiked to the pressure ridges in March. This was shortly ater the days had full light. It was cold and grey but there was a lot of light. It was hard to calculate the F-stop settings on the camera and some photos are overexposed. At the pressure ridges we climbed and messed around. On the other side of the ridge was an open lead, five feet wide. We watched it skim over with ice. Gradually the fluctuations became fainter and fainter until the ice appeared solid but was probably less than ½" thick.
