Hello all,
Sasha Cahill and I are organizing a Deepwater Pelagic Trip expected to reach waters up to at least 60 miles west of Eureka on DECEMBER 6th, with the help of CAL POLY HUMBOLDT and their newly acquired Northwind catamaran.
This pelagic trip represents an extremely rare opportunity to encounter highly coveted species such as MOTTLED PETREL, PARAKEET AUKLET, and SHORT-TAILED ALBATROSS. In recent years, deepwater pelagic trips during the month of December (the optimal time for Mottled Petrel in California waters) have been nonexistent.
Meeting Location: 6AM at the WOODLEY ISLAND MARINA, 302 STARTARE DR, EUREKA, CA.
Pelagic timing: 6AM-6PM
The pricing of the trip will be $200, and I will send further directions regarding the payment process at a later date.
To sign up, contact me at 707-200-5646. You will promptly be added to a temporary waitlist while we calculate the potential number of attending Cal Poly Humboldt students.
