July 20th marks the 50th anniversary of the first humans on the Moon. "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind." Come join Lost Maples Friend's group member, Greg Walton and park staff on a moon hike and moon landing celebration. Due to no full moon on the actual anniversary date of the 20th, we will hosting the hike on the 13th instead.
• Friends of Lost Maples member, Greg Walton, will be leading a Full Moon Hike down the East Trail to the Pond, beginning at 8:30pm.
• The guided hike is free with your paid park entrance and open to all ages! No reservations needed! Entrance is $6 per person anyone 13 years old or older. Please prepay online https://texasstateparks.reserveamerica.com/, to avoid having to use the self pay. Make sure you print your permit and leave it on the dash of your vehicle.
• Meet at the over-flow parking lot and don’t forget to bring appropriate clothing/shoes, snacks, drinks, a walking stick, glow sticks for youngsters who may be afraid of the dark and a flashlight/headlamp for emergency or use in the parking lot.
• We will be hiking strictly by the light of the moon and ask that flashlight/head lamps be turned off to preserve the moonlight.
• It’s also fun to bring binoculars along on a full moon hike. Or you can leave a telescope in your car at the trailhead for a little stargazing before or after the hike.
