Full moon hike March 19

Thu, 02/28/2019 - 7:45am

Midcoast Conservancy will offer a full moon hike or snowshoe at Hidden Valley Nature Center in Jefferson on Tuesday, March 19 from 7-9 p.m. Enjoy a crisp evening illuminated by the glow of the moon and discover a new way of being in the woods. At night, sounds become more pronounced; listen for owls and the rustling of nighttime foragers along the trail.

Meet at the gate at HVNC at 6:50 p.m. Attendees should dress warmly, wear shoes with good grips and a hiking stick if desired, and bring a snack, drink and flashlight or headlamp. The hike guide will lead the group to shore of Little Dyer Pond to watch the moon rise over the water. The hike will be about 40 minutes each way, and of moderate ease. Snowshoes are available by reservation, or participants bring their own, if snow is on the ground.

No dogs, please.
