I am a Chicago birder/backpacker who will be heading out your way to hike
the Wonderland Trail around Mt Rainier at the end of August/beginning of
September. I do have A Birder's Guide to Washington, but would like to
gather as much information as possible about birding Mount Rainier's
backcountry. I have a few targets that I'll list at the bottom. If anyone
can provide any information about these species, or if any birders have done
the Wonderland Trail and can share some general information I would
appreciate it.

"Sooty" Grouse
White-Tailed Ptarmigan
Spotted Owl
Northern Pygmy-Owl
Red-Breasted Sapsucker
Grey-crowned Rosy-Finch

Thanks,
