UPCOMING FIELD TRIPS

FIELD TRIP SCHEDULE

Saturday, Feb. 15.  Meet at 3:00PM Saturday afternoon at the Goose Egg Inn parking lot for a hike to the Jackson Canyon Eagle Roost.  We will drive from the Goose Egg Inn parking lot to the base of Jackson Canyon for an energetic hike (a 500 foot climb and a mile and a half walk in, hopefully, deep snow).  If the weather is bad, snowing so hard that visibility is bad or subzero wind chill, we will postpone the trip.  Watching the eagles come into the roost is a really awesome experience.  We will walk back out after sundown, so head lamps or flashlights are suggested.  Call Stacey Scott at 262-0055 for more information.

Saturday, March 29.  Meet at Morad Park at 9:00 AM for a trip to Goldeneye Reservoir.  The duck migration should be started, and Goldeneye should have lots.  Call Stacey Scott at 262-0055 for more information.

Saturday April 12.  Meet at 5:30 AM at the east side Safeway Parking lot for a trip to the Hat 6 Sage-Grouse Lek.  The road to the Lek is an all weather road, so we can go even if it is muddy.  This Lek is much reduced from what it was even 5 years ago, but there were still a dozen birds last year.  The Sage-Grouse strutting is the most impressive of any of the North American birds, and really worth getting up early to see.  Call Stacey Scott at 262-0055 for more information.
