The Nightwatch Stargazing Adventure Jeep Tour

The Nightwatch Stargazing Adventure Jeep Tour

Combine the geology associated with the unique and intriguing landscape along the San Andreas Fault with the astronomy of an evening stargazing experience when you embark on the Nightwatch Stargazing Adventure Jeep Tour. Your tour will depart about two and a half hours prior to sunset as you explore the shifting evening lights and the shadows it casts on the twisted, gnarled earth that has been tortured by the power of the tectonic plates along the faultline.

As the sun begins to set, you'll be able to enjoy a spectacular, breathtaking mountain sunset before the stars appear in the evening sky. At that point, your knowledgeable guides will identify constellations, planets, and stars, all while sharing the interesting stories behind their significance.
