- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 19 Sep, 2026 at 07:30 pm – Sat, 19 Sep, 2026 at 08:30 pm (-07:00)
- **Event Description**: Discover how the desert comes alive after dark! Do you know which animals change colors when you use a blacklight?

Using blacklights, a Friends’ volunteer docent will begin a short walk on uneven cobbled desert terrain in the basin below the dike/levy looking for scorpions and other nocturnal creatures that inhabit our desert.

This is a family friendly event. Minors must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Bring water, wear closed-toed shoes and a black light if you have one. If not, we will have a few black lights to share. Sorry, no dogs allowed on this trail.

RSVP is required, check-in 15 minutes prior to start time. Ticket reservations begin 14 days prior to the event at: https://www.desertmountains.org/event/monument-night-adventures-7/

A suggested non-refundable donation of $5.00 per person is appreciated and encouraged to support our volunteer programs.

Please note: We will meet at the Art Smith Trailhead parking lot located just past the driveway for the Visitor Center approximately 100 feet on the southwest side of Highway 74.
