Our trip report (by Lynn Everson) is ready, and we have a lot of pictures from this wonderful field trip. The photos are by Annette Kimmich and Jo Lakeland. Click above for more pictures. If you do not want to see all the pictures (the downloading does indeed take some time), just go to the page with thumbnails, and make your choice.
