Join Ranger Derik on evening fitness hike through the park and look for nocturnal animals that call the desert home under the stars.  

The hike will cover sections of the Blevins, Meridian, and Cat peaks trails for a total of 4.3 miles and combined the route is considered moderate. Expects rocky, sandy, and uneven trail in many places. If you have mobility issues or bad knees hiking poles are strongly encouraged. As we will be hiking after sunset make sure to pack a flashlight or headlamp with a full charge or new/extra batteries. Bathrooms are available at the trailhead  however this is no water fountain so make sure to have water with you already.
