Abstract
A 51 mm diameter bore-hole camera allows observation of subglacial conditions, measurement of basal sliding rates, and study of internal structure and debris in ice at depth. The camera is simple in construction, field operation and maintenance. Water turbidity is a significant problem but it can be overcome by pumping.Keywords
