- **Event Name**: Explore Out of this World Trails and the Cosmos - Copper Breaks (Hiking & Camping)
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 10 Oct, 2026 at 09:00 am (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: Ever dreamed of exploring another planet without leaving Texas? Join us at Copper Breaks State Park, where the rugged landscape and unique geology create a trail experience that feels truly out of this world, no spacesuit required, but a lot of water!. Our 12-mile hike will take you through striking rock formations, canyons, and vistas that are unlike anywhere else in the state.


After the trail, we’ll refuel with well-earned pizza at Sweet T Pizza before returning to the park to camp under the stars. As an International Dark Sky Park, Copper Breaks offers some of the clearest, darkest skies in Texas - perfect for stargazing, learning night photography techniques, or just marveling at the Milky Way. For those who want a little more adventure, there’s even an optional short night hike to experience the park in a whole new light.


Additionally, I’ll be camping Friday night with a pre-event hike of around 6 miles, and you’re welcome to join me for this warm-up adventure. Whether you come for the geology, the hiking, or the stunning night skies, this event promises a memorable and otherworldly weekend.


Campsite(s) I recommend: #37, #38, #39, #40
