Subject: volunteers needed in Clayoquot Sound

I need help from volunteers to complete a study in natural disturbances
in the old-growth forests of Clayoquot Sound.  Each volunteer session would
be approximately two weeks during the period of mid-July to mid-September.
While the work is technically easy, it is very physically demanding.  You
must be prepared to clamber over all the obstacles the coastal forest can
offer in the pouring rain.  And camp in the bush in a tent for two
weeks.  With the bears and the resident cougar.

All food will be provided as will transport from Seattle, Vancouver or
along the way to Tofino (or somewhere else close).  Since funding is
tight, I can't offer any salary, but I can offer a chance to spend time in a
wild forest, and I will try and teach you what I can about them.

If you are interested, please send me a short note (by email, fax or
mail) by Friday July 7, detailing

-your outdoor experience
-your availability
-and why you would like to volunteer in Clayoquot Sound

Please forward this message to anyone who you think would be interested.
