Star Gazing Party - Larch Mountain

Fri October 5th: 6:30 PM - 10:30 PM

In Room(s): Off Site

Join us for an evening of late summer star gazing on Larch Mountain.  We'll carpool from the Shambhala Center up to Larch Mountain (about an hour) and hike a short uphill 1/4 mile to the viewpoint.  Mark Douglass and his son Scotty will bring their 8" refractor telescope for viewing the planets, stars, and galaxies that are visible at that time of year.  We'll head home after a couple hours (10:30 pm or so).

Bring: your telescope if you have one, a jacket, folding chair, gas money for the driver, and snacks if you want them.  Flashlights should be covered in red cellophane or have a red filter of some sort (helps the eyes stay adjusted to the darkness).

Meeting time:  6:30pm

Meeting location:  Portland Shambhala Center

Drive time:  1hr each way

Event Leader:  Mark Douglass. 

RSVP!  Please RSVP Here if you expect to come to this Star Gaze.  This will not only provide a count, but allow us to to contact you if there are any changes in date or time.  Thank you!
