Adventure Tips

Dress in layers

Mountain evenings can quickly cool down, so wear layered clothing for comfort during both wildlife watching and stargazing.

Bring binoculars

While telescopes are provided for stargazing, binoculars can enhance wildlife viewing and bring distant stars closer.

Arrive early

Getting ready 15-20 minutes before sunset ensures you don’t miss the initial wildlife activity and sunset colors.

Use red flashlight

A red flashlight preserves night vision and enhances your ability to see stars without disturbing wildlife or other guests.
