Full Moon Hike


Every full moon we try to go on a night hike. It's fun to do because flashlights are not needed, and because everything looks so shadowy, scary, and beautiful under the moonlight. This full moon we (Me, Kyle, Trent, and Nate) waited until midnight and then hiked up into the white cliffs just northeast of Winchester Hills. Me and Trent had been there before, but it took us a little while anyway to find our way into a narrow slot canyon that leads to some petroglyphs. We shimmied up the sides of the canyon walls and met some confused bats before we found what we were looking for. Some of the petroglyphs had been damaged by people etching over the top of them, but many of them are still intact and SO neat to see!
