Introduction

In most years the Club organises a Long Range Excursion (LRX) to a destination well away from Perth. These excursions last at least a week and usually involve an aspect of research or monitoring and including activities such as establishing quadrats for botanical purposes, bird surveys, pitfall trapping and so on. Participation is restricted to members, and the number of participants is usually limited.
