Yeti Surveys Warren Cave

After some debugging and testing, we performed some autonomous GPR surveys at Warren Cave.  Warren is one of several fumoralic ice caves that Mt. Erebus scientists enter to measure temperature, gas concentrations, and morphology.  Our LiDAR team, Jed and Drea, went into Warren Cave a few weeks ago to perform green LiDAR scans of Warren's interior.  I was lucky enough to accompany them and help out when I could.

In order to enter the cave, we had to anchor ourselves to stakes driven into the rock in case the cave ceiling collapsed under our weight.

Yeti did pretty well on the snow over Warren, except for some icy patches here and there. We set up a mountain tent as a staging area for Yeti's electronics, including a large DC car battery, an inverter, an extra GPR, extra laptop batteries, and extra Ultralife batteries.

I'm a mechanical engineering undergrad student, looking to start learning autocad in my free time. If you are an engineer, what auto-cad programs do you run into most often? Autodesk? Solid Works?. . Thanks!.

I have a part that I made a drawing for. I now have edited the part. When I go back to the drawing, the drawing doesn't update with the change of the solid model. The two are linked because when I right click on the part in an assembly and click "open drawing" the drawing opens. Any suggestions?. . Thank you for any help.
