Night Hike! August’s full moon is often called the “Sturgeon Moon,” again deriving its name from Native tribes who found an abundance of giant lake sturgeon ready to catch in the Great Lakes and Lake Champlain in the later summer months, according to the Farmer’s Almanac.

ORCA’s Certified Interpretive Guide will lead a free guided hike through the scenic trails of Baileys Trail System. We are meeting at Chauncey-Dover Park Trailhead under the shelter house at 6:30 p.m. before caravaning to explore more trails in the system. The hike will not be two hours long, but a buffer window for gathering and getting started. Come prepared with comfortable shoes, water, and a sense of adventure. Don’t miss this opportunity to explore the great outdoors, get some fresh air exercise, and make new friends!

ORCA’s guided hike series in the Wayne National Forest is a hike at your own risk event. The tour guide is a certified Wilderness First Responder who will carry a first aid kit.
