Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Full Moon Hike
August 28 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Free with Park Fee
Come watch the full moon rise over the spectacular saguaros of the Sonoran Desert. We’ll be walking the Ford Canyon and Waddell trails for a roughly 2-mile jaunt, enjoying the beauty of a landscape silvered by the moon and stars. Trail is easy-moderate, so expect some loose rock and/or uneven terrain and a minor amount of elevation change. Please wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes, and bring plenty of water and a flashlight. Restrooms are available near the trailhead. NO pets, please.
MEETING LOCATION: Area 9 (near restrooms).
