See the night-time world like you've never seen it before! A park ranger will guide you on a search for crawling critters of the dark that emit an other-worldly glow. A special "blacklight" ultra-violet flashlight will be used to reveal the secret fluorescent colors of insects and other living creatures. What to Expect: The walk will be less than a mile on flat ground at a slow pace with frequent breaks as bugs are discovered. Please wear closed-toe shoes and be prepared to walk in the dark. Bri
