65th Street Park and Ride at 7 AM.

Hansville is a wild area not far from Seattle but separated from it by a ferry ride, which makes it much more remote, especially in late autumn. There may be mushrooms there still and mammals such as bear and otter are possible, plus forest birds, conifers, mosses, lichens. Point No Point is a birders mecca and many seabirds are seen there. Bring scopes and binoculars if you have them.
