  • Knife River will be working Lake Road through the summer
    • Mostly one lane will be closed, both lanes will be closed at times
    • Check with Chiefs for directions
  • IR Camera Discussion and Demos
    • Flir had pictures with side-by-side comparison though it does need a high heat to register high res (welcome to the matrix)
    • Smaller Red has high res all the time, it is not ergonomic friendly, not really built for gloves and air packs. Does have a docking station
    • Another option is the bigger Flir K33 with a 6” screen
    • Next question is do we opt for 4 personals and 1 big or 8 personals
    • OG Cameras still work, though they are big and heavy. Time to use newer tech.
