Full Moon Hike - Tuesday, February 7

Join us for an evening of hiking and forest exploration under the light of a full moon. We will enjoy the tranquility of the evening while observing the stars in the sky and the critters that are more active at night. The hike will cover 4-5 miles at a steady pace going up and down some hills. Marvel at how well your eyes can see by the light of the moon!
