AS 14-68-9455 - Triple Core

134:26:27 MT - While Ed worked on the triple core, Al was digging a trench and, in the end, needed the extension handle to get it to full depth. In this photo, we can see that the extension handle has been removed prior to Ed's second attempt at getting the triple. Because of the length of the triple core, Ed can hammer the first section or two into the ground without the extension handle.
He will need it, however, to finish the job and, in fact, gets it back from Al at about 134:27:48 MT.
