About
Summon your courage and join us for a spooky Night Hike with spider snuffing, black light scorpion spotting, and stargazing! Starting at sunset, we will be hiking a 1.0 mile section of our Loop Trail out to the scenic overlook while a ranger guides us through the finer aspects of spotting arachnids at night. We'll talk about some common fears and misconceptions about arachnids, and ways to overcome them. Plus, arachnid representation in Greek mythology and the constellations. Meet: At the Loop Trail Trailhead adjacent to our main campground parking lot.
Bring: Bug spray, water, binoculars, and flashlights.
