Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Full Moon Hike

Join Ranger Kevin for an easy and enjoyable evening hike. We’ll be setting off on an approximately 2-mile, out-and-back hike on the Slate trail. Trail is rated easy, so there is a minimal amount of loose rock, uneven terrain and elevation change. We’ll enjoy the beauty of a quiet outdoor evening as we hike through a desert landscape silvered by the moon and stars (weather permitting, of course). Before we finish, we’ll also look skyward for planets, stars and constellations. Please wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes and bring plenty of water, along with a flashlight. Restrooms are available near the trailhead. NO pets, please.
