Full Supermoon Hike – Pipestem Resort State Park
October 17 @ 6:30 pm
Meet the Naturalist at 6:30 p.m. in front of the 18 Hole Golf Pro Shop for a Full Moon Hike. The October 2024 Hunter’s Moon will occur on Thursday, October 17 at 6:47p.m. ET. Meet in front of the Golf Pro Shop. This Full Supermoon will be the biggest and brightest in 2024, as the Moon will approach the Earth the closest this year. Also, this moon may appear red or orange when it’s hanging low above the horizon. In North America, it is named for the time to hunt and slaughter meat. This walk will follow the paved golf cart along holes 1-9. Bring a flashlight and dress appropriately for the weather. The hike will be approximately 2.5 miles, or about 1.5 hours.
Hint: There may be times the moon is so bright we won’t even need a flashlight! For more information contact Julie.A.McQuade@wv.gov.
