Description
Get out of bed and experience the first meteor shower of Spring 2024 with the SLA! Just before dawn on April 22nd, the Lyrid shower will be peaking over the Northern Hemisphere. We will meet at the Whitten Woods trailhead in Ashland at 4:45, and walk a short distance to an open field for ideal viewing. What to Bring: The origin point of the shower will be directly overhead, so we encourage bringing a blanket or sleeping pad to sit or lie on for more comfortable stargazing. The SLA will also be able to provide sit pads for participants. See website for more information and to register.
