Description: I wanted to show you the picture of our research truck. It is really dirty, because the Dalton Highway is dusty and muddy at times. The researchers have lovingly named the truck Wedgie the Whale. Since it is a blue Ford F250, the color of blue reminded the researchers of Wedgewood Blue. The truck is so large so whale became part of the name as well - Wedgie the Whale.
