Lunar Eclipse Night Hike

A night hike to view the total lunar eclipse. I have been in touch with EBRPD and confirmed that we can be there after hours if a campsite is reserved, so once a critical mass of people have RSVP'd to this event I will reserve a campsite at Venados Campground, where we can take a snack and water break along Lake Del Valle before heading back up to the ridge. The eclipse lasts about 3.5 hours.

Eclipse information:
- 1:50am - Partial eclipse begins
- 3:04am - Total eclipse begins
- 3:33am - Maximum eclipse
- 4:02am - Total eclipse ends
- 5:17am - Partial eclipse ends

Be prepared for a night hike:
- Dress warm
- Bring illumination for the trail, backup batteries recommended (red light mode will help preserve night vision for sky gazing)
- Wear reflective clothing
- Stay with the group
