[Bristol-Birds] Re: BBC Roan Mountain Field Trip

Hey folks,
I would like to add one bit of advice from personal experience. Whenever hiking on Roan Mtn. or any other high elevations, be sure to take rain gear, no matter what the forecast is. Thundershowers can pop up anytime, and hypothermia is possible even in summer. Be prepared and don't worry.

Don Holt has agreed to lead the Bristol Bird Club field trip to Roan Mountain scheduled for this Saturday, August 23rd. Meet at the Visitor Center (paddle wheel) at Roan Mountain State Park at 8:00 am. Plans are to drive to Carvers Gap and then walk over Round Bald to see Jamie Donaldson's goat project. This should be a fun trip with interesting birds, fabulous scenery and great leadership with Don. It will involve several miles of hilly terrain. 

 
If you have any questions, need directions or would like to set up a car pool call Don at (423) 483-0470 or me at (423) 773-9234. It doesn't look like I will be able to attend the field trip but I can still help with arrangements.
