Since the Ranger III is not equipped nor allowed to haul bulk gasoline and avgas to the island, the Greenstone II gas barge is used. It is towed back and forth, usually once or twice a season. It spends most of the time hidden in a cove on Mott.
Second airplane on the island for 2009's winter study. Donnie and Rolf landed with the Flagship first to make sure there was enough ice for the loaded to the gills Beaver. (Aircraft was full of stuff and John, myself and the pilot, weight was nowhere near capacity.)
