Bob Werra mentioned the Greentours tour in the N. Calif.-S. Oregon 
area this year. I corresponded with Ian Green when he was planning it 
and recommended some possible guides.

Greentours is now running the ALpine Garden Society tours but also 
has many tours that are not associated with AGS and are open to 
everyone. I recommend them too.
