Figure 20. Reservoir 13 with water remaining to an average depth of one meter. In the foreground one can see the shelf of exposed bedrock floor and the algae bloom in the shallower water. 26 October 2016.

Figure 24. Team 1. The group that worked the first two weeks and is mostly responsible for the clearing and cleaning of reservoirs R7 and R31.
Figure 17. Close up view of quarry marks. Below the 10-cm scale stick the groove in which wood wedges soaked with water were jammed is clearly visible. Because of the fine-grained igneous texture, the basalt blocks split of smoothly, similar to a flint sliver knapped from a core. 1 November, 2016.

Figure 23. The cleaned portion of exposed floor. Proper care of this water source will require periodic cleaning of the entire reservoir floor, at times when the entire water supply is used up. 27 October, 2016.
