Robert,

One of my students, Travis, would like to know how much daylight you are having, what time is sunrise and sunset?

 

Thanks

Kirk

Hi Kirk,On April 14 there was twilight at 3:30, until sunrise at 5:20 am, with sunset at 2200 hrs (10:00 pm) and twilight until 2400 (12:00 am).  Roughly 16.5 hours of sunlight at the ice camp.  Compare that to Boston on the same day, which got 13.5 hours.  See the researcher blog "womenonice" mentioned in the forum and look at the bottom of the page.  This is where I got the information from.
Sincerely,
 
Robert
