TAKE A TOUR: Except for Clark County which has a small fee, all of our tours are self guided and free. In the list above, click on the name of the tour you are interested in. If the tour has a kickoff site, please check in & pick up a "tour kit" and find out if there are any special issues.
You might want to print out some tour/site info ahead of tour day so a last minute computer/server/printer glitch isn't a "tragedy". Be sure to check back here closer to the actual tour time to verify if there are any late changes, additions, or removals -because there are always some. This year we had several late additions - even on the last day!
Some sites are noted as a "drive-by" or "walk-by" because the people living there might not know about the system or features. Please respect the residents' privacy by not disturbing them.
Please be aware that most of the maps are from last year. But most maps are for general reference anyway. Follow directions to each site because experience has found that online maps and GPS units might have inaccuracies.
SHARE YOUR PHOTOS! - If you take photos during the tour, we'd love to see them & put on our website. Of special interest are photos that include tour guests with the technology in the background/ foreground. Don't worry about dropping the resolution or cropping the photo. The best ones at a higher resolution might be worth sharing with ASES. Empty space at the top & sides could be useful if it's used on a magazine cover or flyer. Send your photos to tour@solarwashington.org and please note which tour/site they are from. - & Thanks for sharing!
