I cancelled this trip on the Thursday before it, but then on the next day I reinstated it. Read the Field Trip Report for more info.
outing is cancelled due to weather concerns. Notifications went out by e-mail on Nov.11 to those who expressed interest. Will be rescheduled if we have favorable weather in Dec. – Roger D.

On Nov. 13th 2021, we will be going to First Creek which is east of Cle Elum and part of the Teanaway formation. Meet 9:30 AM in the Cle Elum Safeway parking lot near the gas pumps (exit 84 – 702 W 1st St, Cle Elum), about 1.5 hour drive from Renton. We’ll leave there at 9:45, head east on Hwy 970, and park at the First Creek parking area (about 10 miles away – just 1/2 mile north of 97/970 junction).
Group will leave from the First Creek parking lot about 10:10 AM!
Agates, Jasper, Geodes, and Crystal – Bring digging and hard rock tools, buckets, and sturdy shoes. Appropriate clothing for weather, lunch, drinking water and snacks. This is a 2 mile hike on a logging road with 5 moderate ups and downs. A wagon or jogging cart is handy for carrying tools and material.
