CCD observations have been carried on 4 fields in the outer disk and one in the halo of M31 on the 5m Hale telescope, and reduced using the Starman stellar photometry package (Penny, 1992). CMDs for all fields show the brightest 3 magnitudes of the Red Giant Branch. AGB luminosity functions were constructed for each field and corrected for incompletness. Full details are given in Morris et al (1994).
