Mount Rainier, July 25 - August 1, 2020

Sorry but this trip has been cancelled due to the COVID-19 epidemic.

We're pleased to lead a week-long trip for the Audubon Naturalist Society this summer, featuring a four-night stay at the Paradise Lodge, located near treeline at Mount Rainier National Park.  We'll learn about geology, ecology, plants, birds, and other wildlife on this broad-based nature study trip.  Spaces are limited, more details and registration information is available from the Audubon Naturalist Society here: https://anshome.org/adults/
