replying to @e_terren @e_terren @ArchesNPS On a trip to the Waitomo Cave in New Zealand, the guide strapped me to a zip line before turning off the lights and then giving me a big shove down the line. Racing through the pure blackness was incredibly unnerving - but at the end there were glowworms! #ParkChat

A5 @CraterLakeNPS best Ranger program! Learned so much about the 🌋 and how is collapsed on itself! Also, reminds me of my late Gma we would always go together. #ParkChat

replying to @WildWithinHer @WildWithinHer @Stars252525 @59NationalParks @ArchesNPS @CavernsNPS Come down to Austin during the summer and watch bats from one of the largest urban bat colonies take flight from under Congress bridge at dusk. #ParkChat Just make sure you’re on the bridge not under. #batpee 😉🤣🤣🤣 ☂

Q6. Cultures have seen different shapes in the night sky. The Big Dipper, as we may know it, has been seen as many other things (like a bear, a wagon, a plough, etc.). What shapes do you see in the stars? #ParkChat

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS @YellowstoneNPS A5. Not to go on and on about Killarney, but this chat topic and that park go together like PB & J. This summer they held an epic dark sky party, where we had the chance to discus light pollution, connect with other lovers of the night sky, and stargaze. #ParkChat

A4: A full moonlit night hike at Donner Memorial State Park, CA circa 1984. I was amazed on how many campers had never explored the forest or Donner Lake shoreline at night. Priceless memories. #ParkChat

@ArchesNPS @YellowstoneNPS A5. Once, as we gathered around the camp fire in Itasca State Park in Minnesota, an "old woodsman" came out of the forest and joined our group. He told some pretty good tales from the past.

replying to @kristarsha @kristarsha @Stars252525 @59NationalParks @ArchesNPS @CavernsNPS I actually once wrote an interpretive panel about bats here at Capitol Lake. They fly something like nine miles every night to feed at the lake and then return to their roost. We have bat walks here too. I should do one. #parkchat

replying to @ArchesNPS @ArchesNPS A6 I am an absolute dud at finding constellations, etc. I can occasionally spot a comet, and I love to watch the space station zoom over. #ParkChat
