Fodor's Expert Review Full Moon Hike

Rangers lead guided hikes on the nights around each full moon (two per month). You must wear heavy-traction shoes and reserve a spot on the day of the hike. In peak season the tickets are distributed through a lottery system. Schedules are posted at the visitor center and on the park's website. No flashlights or head lamps are allowed, and children must be at least 8 years old. In winter, when there's at least 16 inches of snow, the hike is by snowshoe.
