Description:
Look for us by my car a row or two down from the fee box. Sunset at 8:32 and (full) moonrise is 8:26. UPDATE: Partial moon eclipse begins at 7:27 pm, while the moon is below the horizon. Total eclipse begins at 8:29 pm and ends at 9:53 pm. It takes a while for the Moon to clear the horizon, so by the time it is seen it will likely be fully eclipsed.
Current plan is to take Trails 7,3, and 1 ( a shorter route to make sure we are on top with time to spare). Faster hikers might want to include a section of Trail 4. Email me at jbjacobsen@comcast.net if you have questions.
I will be there by 7:00 if you need to leave earlier.
.If weather doesn’t cooperate with an actual lviewing of the celestial event, we won’t wait for the moonrise that would rise over the foothills 7 min or so after sunset.
