We're sampling stable isotopes in #water in #RapidCreek for a PhD project. So, I was over the moon that it was raining cats and dogs for my afternoon sampling this arvo. Can't wait to see the results. 🧪 @charlesdarwinuni.bsky.social #hydrology

Today’s #fullimmersion in #RapidCreek served a dual purpose:
1) getting in my April plunge;
2) washing my hair because our holding tank is full (on a Saturday of course)

Happy Solstice!
If you know me, you know I have a ritual of doing a #fullimmersion in #RapidCreek at least once a month, every month.
I hear it’s unseasonably warm down in Rapid City, but it’ll be another 6 weeks til direct sun returns here.
Decided today was the (December) day!

Monthly creek jumps are always better with a friend!

December is typically a tough #fullimmersion in #RapidCreek.
Not as acclimated to the cold as I’ll be in the deeper winter months.
And that snow-and-icemelt-fed water is 🥶

I always think December’s the toughest month. Til I do my January…#FullImmersion in #RapidCreek

My recent opinion piece (sorry paywall) supporting the mineral claims withdrawal proposed to protect our critical regional water source. #RapidCreek #ProtectPactola #SaveJennyGulch
Guest Opinion: We must protect the Pactola Reservoir-Rapid Creek Watershed
