Scott,

The problem with your call to tridgrid is that 'gs' and 'limits'
are arguments, not keywords. Since they are arguments (positional
parameters) they must come before the keyword extrapolate. Also, since
they are not keywords, you should not have the 'gs=' or 'limits='.

The following should work:

gridhght = trigrid(xlon, xlat, hght, tr, [1.0,1.0], bigbox,$
extrapolate=b)

Good Luck
