It's Friday and we're introducing a new feature at Trailmix.Net called the Friday Roundup. Here is the Readers Digest version of our favorite stories this week.

Birding with Kids:
Birdfreak.com produced an introductory guide to birding with children. These guys always seem to read my mind... when I have a question they just know and post the answer. Amazing.
Geyser Cam:
Yellowstone National Park launched the Geyser Cam. You are never going to hear us advocate watching digital outdoors instead of packing up the kids to visit a park, but this site is definitely worth a visit. Click over, pop some corn, and watch Old Faithful erupt.
YNP Scavenger Hunt:
Yosemiteblog.com covered a really cool scavenger hunt program being developed for families visiting Yosemite National Park : ) We love it.
Waterfall Photo:
LittleRedTent.com published an excellent photo of Horsetail Falls in Yosemite National Park.
Buying a New GPSr:
GeocachingOnline.com published a list of features to look for if you are considering purchasing a new GPSr for Geocaching.
The Health Benefits of Geocaching:
Climbers on Mt. Hood were rescued when they found a Geocache that had the cache coordinates noted on the log.
Bobcats in Yosemite:
TreeInTheDoorVideo.com published a video (perhaps) starring the bobcat we saw last weekend near Lower Yosemite Falls.
