Observation details
Special morning on a day when it looked and felt like another planet up at the dome. Almost didn't leave the car as it was so socked in but I wanted to snowshoe a little bit. I had wanted to look for ROPT on the NW side today but decided to do a quick check around the area I had seen WIPT before near the air traffic station first and I was so lucky to see my first ROPT after only trekking for a few minutes. As I was leaving they flew far off towards the other side of the dome, which I hiked down the snowmobile tracks to explore and found what was likely the same group of 12 along with others. I counted 19 but there were likely more, three males seen.
