Join Conservancy Naturalist Jeremiah and National Park Service Ranger Dan as we hit the trail and look to the sky on a guided night wander complete with telescope stations, astronomy activities, and tips on backyard stargazing.
Late fall and winter bring darker and clearer skies ideal for stargazing. We’ll explore the open prairie at Standing Cedar’s Englewood property – perfect for unobstructed views of the constellations and more. Embrace the season and learn more about what’s far beyond our watershed!
