Laura LeBlanc and Martin Truffer flew to the Bering Glacier sites on July 7-8, 2007, with ERA Helicopters pilot Jan Gunderson. The main purpose of the trip was to replace the L22 seismometers with borehole L22s. They ended up doing a lot of  maintenance due to flooded instrument  enclosures.
The good news is that the instruments recorded a lot of data, generally through late June when the snow all melted and either tipped over the seismometers or flooded the enclosures.
The GPS data indicate a horizontal velocity of 4.2 meters per day at the uppermost site.
