We describe how we dated the pre/Holocene ice using the annual dust peaks observed with LLS (starting from the accepted chronology to 2250 m) and obtained a chronology in substantial accord with the gas-age dating of the ice. We also show that the GISP2 ice core penetrated the Eemian and that a record of a 10.2-kyr penultimate glaciation is present in the GISP2 core.
