SOUTH BRIDGTON — Loon Echo Land Trust staff will lead a sunset-moonrise hike to Bald Pate Mountain at 6 p.m. Saturday, March 31, from the Bald Pate parking lot, Route 107 for the 45-minute scramble to the summit.
Sunset will occur at 7:05 p.m. and the full “pink moon” will rise at 7:25 p.m. The second full moon of March is also referred to as a blue moon.
Along the way, participants will learn about how Loon Echo and a group of area residents rallied to permanently protect Bald Pate Mountain, the various critters that call it home, and what the preserve’s future management looks like. Participants are encouraged to bring water, snacks and a headlamp for the return trip. Snowshoes or traction devices may be required, depending on weather. Please check Loon Echo’s website and Facebook page for updates.
The hike is free and open to the public, but registration is required. To sign up for the hike, contact Loon Echo stewardship manager Jon Evans at stewardship@lelt.org or call 207-647-4352.
Loon Echo’s next event is Volunteer Trail Work Day at Pleasant Mountain on Saturday, April 14. For more information about upcoming events or ways to support Loon Echo Land Trust, visit www.lelt.org or call 207-647-4352.
