replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS A8 I'm running in and out of the house to look at the moon tonight. I have not but would love to take the full moon hike at @WhiteSands_NPS #ParkChat

A8. Did a fantastic full mooner just outside your neighborhood at Corona Arch. Spectacular. #parkchat

A8. I just took my first-ever moonlight hike with Southern Nevada Conservancy and @blmnv volunteers. It was fantastic. I didn't use a flashlight but definitely had to think about where I was placing my feet. #ParkChat

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS A8. As a full time RVer, I'm always in parks after dark and love taking night hikes, especially in the light of the full moon! I always take a headlamp and some extra batteries and good shoes to keep the snakes from biting. 🐍 #ParkChat

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS A8 #ParkChat My first backpacking night hike was under a full moon in @NCascadesNPS. My husband and I challenged ourselves to go as long as we could without our handlamps. It was a surprisingly long time!

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS A8. I work for an organization that develops hiking events (@Rainbow_Routes ), and this fall we held a full moon hike & bonfire party. The trails felt silent and peaceful. #ParkChat

I haven’t taken in a full moon hike but did do a Ranger led hike to Mills Lake in RMNP for the eclipse. It got pretty dusky

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS A8: most of mine were simply days that went into overtime for one reason or another. Also, both my R'-R-R hikes were timed for it #ParkChat

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS A8) Never been on a moon hike, but the Detroit Free Press @freep said that the Super Moon would be just a touch smaller than the average Michigan pothole 😉 #ParkChat

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS A8) I've been on numerous Full Moon Walks at @JohnMuirNPS, if the moonlight is bright enough I tend to walk a bit slower without a flashlight on going down Mt Wanda so not to trip & fall. #ParkChat

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS A8) We've totally explored by full moon, it's quite something. It's always amazing how much light the moon reflects and the stark difference when it's night and there's a new moon and it's so dark. #ParkChat

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS A8 We’ve done lots of full moon hikes and full moon ski trips. I tend to prefer the full moon ski trips as the snow picks up so much moon glow. #parkchat

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS #parkchat A8 We've done them around our house in @BlackHillsNF & it's fun to turn off the flashlights, get adjusted, & walk through the trees by moonlight! Winter is the best with the white snow offering even more visibility. Different animals by night i.e. flying squirrels here!

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS A8: not sure about full moon. I remember nighttime hikes in Madagascar to see nocturnal lemurs. Had headlamps with red light and jumping at my own shadow! Also had a tradition of nighttime lantern nature walk to celebrate winter solstice. #ParkChat

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS A8. I climbed to the top of the Big Dune at Great Sand Dunes National Park without a flashlight (and without shoes) under a Full Moon. Best hike ever. #ParkChat

@ArchesNPS A8. I've never done a full moon hike in a national park. My favorite full moon hike is at home when there is snow. Oh my, it is beautiful. Silent. Magical.

A8 No, but when I was growing up in the 80s, I used to do this kind of moonwalk #parkchat
