Caption from Oceanus magazine, Vol. 52, No. 2, pg. 57:
It took eight people to push a tall metal A-frame for coring operations into place on the deck of the coring vessel. The team cored six sites with different geological features in Yellowstone Lake to give them an unprecedented look at the postglacial geological history of the lake region, including the processes that form large hydrothermal explosion craters. Normally winds build up over the lake in the afternoon. But on the first coring day, the lake was flat calm, and the team got right to work.
