11 February 2006 OISC service trip

Target species: Miconia (Miconia calvescens) 

We had a small dedicated crew and were able to focus on surveying some back gulches that went up to the headwalls in Waimanalo, even though we were missing some familiar faces. Although these gulches were adjacent to removed mature miconia trees, it was a positive note that no plants were found in the forest. Thank you to all those who helped to make this trip a success.
