Join us as we journey to this very special Missouri treasure! Last year, the GOAS group witnessed a half million or more Snow Geese, dozens of Trumpeter Swans, and many other species.
Meet: NE corner of the North Lowe’s parking lot,1707 W Norton Rd
Time: 11 am Friday – Optional Return Times on Saturday or Sunday
Plan: Head to Loess Bluffs. Arrive at the refuge at around 3:30 pm. Bird until ½ hour after the sun sets at 6:05 pm. Eat at Señor Barrigas. The following morning the sun rises at Loess Bluffs at around 7 am. We will meet at the refuge and bird as long as we want. Some may wish to head back that afternoon or evening or stay until Sunday.
Contact Trip Leader Laura McCaskill for more details or to RSVP, [email protected] or text 417-234-5899
Other: Only 5 minutes away in Mound City, there is a very good Mexican restaurant called Senor Barrigos. We will make reservations for those who wish to join in a festive dinner Friday evening. There are only two hotels in Mound City. St. Joseph, Missouri is 30-40 minutes away, but it has many more options. As the weather can be unpredictable in February, Laura HIGHLY RECOMMENDS YOU BOOK LODGING AHEAD OF TIME. MAKE SURE THE HOTEL HAS A CANCELLATION POLICY (DO NOT USE PREPAID TRAVEL SITES).
