Come watch the full moon rise over the Mazatzal mountains. We’ll climb the short (.5 mile) Hilltop trail for a perfect view of the rising moon (weather permitting). Once we’ve had our fill of that, we’ll head out onto the Pemberton trail for a roughly two-mile jaunt, enjoying the beauty of a desert landscape silvered by the moon and stars. Trails are easy-moderate, so expect some loose rock, uneven terrain and elevation change. Please wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes and bring plenty of water, along with a flashlight. Restrooms are available near the trailhead. NO pets, please.
