Conifur Northwest 2005

Conifur Northwest 2005 was a furry convention, the eighth (and final) annual Conifur Northwest. It took place from October 21 - 23 at the Sea-Tac Radisson Airport Hotel in SeaTac, WA, U.S.A. The Sea-Tac Radisson Airport Hotel was torn down in February 2006, so this is the only time Conifur was held at this hotel.
