Description
As the sun sets and the moon rises, hike at your own pace along this 1.6-mile (one way) paved trail, climbing 700 ft to the top of Hurricane Hill. An astronomer will interpret the night sky. Bring sturdy and dress warmly—evenings in the montains can be cool, even in summer. Meet at the Hurricane Hill Trailhead, 1.5 miles past the Hurricane Ridge Visitor Center.
