Description

Earn your Iroquoia Moonlight badge by hiking 3 Moonlight Hikes with a leader.
Tonight’s sunset is at 8:20pm. We will hike up the escarpment and over to the Hawkwatch area and out to Beamer’s Falls and return around 9:30pm.
If you’ve never hiked at night we are sure you will love the way it heightens all of your senses promising a great sleep afterwards.
Everyone must have a headlamp or a flashlight 🔦. Most phones have torches which could also be used as supplemental light. Please ensure your light device is fully charged/batteries to last about 1.5hours. Dress for the weather and bring enough water to suit your needs as well as all the other things you need for a hike - first aid kit, snack, poles (recommended). This is an arduous climb up the escarpment so be sure to know your physical limit.
This is the second of 3 full moon hikes to be held in Grimsby. After you complete three leader-led hikes, you will qualify for a badge. $10/$15

The third moonlight hike is May 31.
