When arriving to the field site after a bush plane flight and snowmobile ride in -10 degree F weather, all you can do is hope that you've covered all your bases. On the Aniak River (Alaska) we are using a StreamPro ADCP modified to perform section-by-section measurements under the ice. In order to keep the bluetooth connection strong, the computer operator needed to sit inside the heated tracked-ATV, while the rest of the team continued the under ice measurement.
