Hi Tweeters,
Due to cancellations, there is currently space on the Seattle Audubon field trip I'm leading to Sunrise, Mt. Rainier, leaving tomorrow (Sat. 8/11) at 6am. ?If you would like to go on the trip, please e-mail me by 11pm tonight and I will confirm that you have a spot. ?Trip description:

Saturday, August 11, 2012 - Limit 7
Mount Rainier, Sunrise ? high-elevation birds and a hike?
Leader: Evan Houston?
6:00 AM, Issaquah P&R (uncovered Tibbetts Lot, 1675 Newport Way NW)

We should see some high-elevation birds and beautiful scenery on this outing. ?Our species count may include a treat or two such as Rosy-Finch or Ptarmigan. ?Weather-permitting, we?ll most likely hike the Burroughs Mountain Loop, a hike of 7 miles with around a thousand feet of elevation gain, all at high elevation. You should be in good physical condition for this outing and able and willing to partake on a strenuous hike (with lots of stops for wildlife and scenery!). ?Bring binoculars, lunch (we?ll picnic on the trail), and multiple layers of clothing to be prepared for unpredictable high-elevation weather. ? Back by about ?6:30-7pm. If you have a national park pass, please bring it. Carpool cost $44.00 + $15 per car for park entrance fee, shared equally by riders.
