UPDATE: Tonights hike programs are cancelled due to weather concerns.

 

Friday, March 14th, , 6:30-9:30 PM (3 mile hike) or 7:30-9:30 PM (1-mile hike)

Advance Registration Is Required. Space is limited. Click this link to the sign-up page: https://cpwconnect.state.co.us/Calendar (NOTE: CSASTRO has no connection to or responsibility for the registration process).

Come join us for a free adventurous astronomy night hike at Cheyenne Mountain State Park! (Free although a park pass is required for entrance into the park)

We will be exploring the Cheyenne Mountain State Park trails, where we will use our five senses to help us navigate at night. We will learn fun facts about how our eyes adjust to darkness, how nocturnal animals survive, night sky sights and more.

There are two hike options: A 3-mile hike and a 1-mile easy hike. The 3-mile hike starts at 6:30 PM and the 1-mile hike starts at 7:30 PM. Both hikes conclude back at the Limekiln Trailhead Parking Lot with 30 minutes of viewing celestial sights through telescopes.

Audience: 8 years old and up

Location: Meet at the Limekiln Parking Lot, meeting near the trail kiosk/restrooms
