Cowie (IfA, Hawaii)\nreport on behalf of a larger collaboration:\n\nWe have observed the XRT localisation of the afterglow of GRB 060427\n(GCN #5010) with the Gemini North telescope + NIRI under variable\nclouds.  Our observations commenced at 2006 Apr 28.23 UTC, and consisted\nin 18 x 60 sec exposures in J-band.  Visual inspection of the combined\nJ-band image does not reveal any afterglow candidate at the XRT position\nto a limiting magnitude of J ~ 20.5 mag, based on three 2MASS sources in\nthe field.  Additional H-band exposures have not yet been examined.\n\nThe afterglow is therefore likely faint, rather than at high redshift.\n\n\nWe thank Tom Matheson and the Gemini North observing team for performing\nthese ToO observations.",
