Join Idaho Conservation League, U.S. Forest Service & astronomers from the Idaho Dark Sky Alliance for a dark sky snowshoe at the Sawtooth National Recreation Area Headquarters! We’ll meet for refreshments in the parking lot, go for a gentle .5 mile out-and-back snowshoe (weather dependent) up North Fork road for some naked-eye stargazing, and return to the parking lot for hot chocolate. If you’re interested, please register via Eventbrite or the ICL website! Note on weather: Wish on the stars for snow! If we do not have enough snow for snowshoeing, we’ll take a gentle stroll up North Fork Canyon Road.
