The camper will be placed near the Jewel Basin trailhead during thisperiod for the overnight use of Hawkwatch volunteers. These volunteers climb up the mountain early in the morning and come down late afternoon or evening. The camper will save them long drives in the dark from home and back.

It will be well taken care of, with only 1 or 2 volunteers using it at a time. The loan will be tax deductible; FAS will provide a letter documenting its value for tax purposes.

For more information or to offer a camper, contact Kay Mitchell, kbmitch@centurytel.net or 756-8130.
