Ok...here is an attempt at a Google map with a marker for the good warbler spot (and I hope those warblers don't make a liar out of me!!). They were very active at about 10:00 this morning. Thank you to Kevin Purcell for the instructions on how to do this.

http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&ie=UTF8&t=h&msa=0&ll=47.666088,-122.421969&spn=0.001806,0.003428&z=18&msid=117718314622410591243.000473413fcd7740d5e57

Alternate Instructions: I find the map a little disorienting, so here is a basic description of the place. If you walk counter-clockwise on the loop trail, you cross two roads (Kansas Road and Alaska Road). Then the trail goes down a slight hill to an abandoned road and you have the options of bearing left-ish to stay on the loop trail or right (past the porta-potty) to follow a path that leads diagonally from the road off to an overlook and a staircase/trail that goes down to the north beach. The warbler spot is in the trees along that path about halfway between the porta-potty and the staircase/trail down to the beach. There are trees along only one side of the trail there--mixed deciduous and conifers. I've found the mixed flocks of warblers there several years in a row.

Good luck! I hope they are there for you, too!
