Description

Join us for a night under the stars atĀ Fort Spokane!

Park Rangers will be conducting a constellation tour followed by telescope viewing, as weather allows. If it does get cloudy, there will be an alternative ranger program, so come join us!

Meet us at the Fort Spokane Visitor Center Parking Lot. Program will begin at 9:30 pm to allow for maximum darkness. Keep in mind, it will be late at night, so use caution getting to and from the program and dress warmly. This program is family friendly.

Bright white lights can severely impact your night vision. If you have a red-light flashlight or headlamp, please bring them. Red-light settings on your cell phones can also be enabled (usually found under Accessibility).
