Description
The Tahoe Rim Trail Association (TRTA) has partnered with Tahoe Star Tours to bring an out-of-this-world experience for Rim Trail Members! Join us at the new Spooner Lake Visitor Center for docent-led stargazing to take a peek into the unique, unobstructed dark skies above Lake Tahoe.

Led by amateur astronomer and poet Tony Berendsen, past president of the Northern Nevada Science Coalition, this night sky tour includes a lively science-based talk about the cosmos and a telescopic view of the constellations through high-powered, professional Celestron telescopes. The telescopes use leading-edge computerized technology for accurate pointing and tracking, with advanced optics for sharp, crisp views of distant celestial objects like galaxies and nebulae. Telescope operators will guide guests through the wonders of the cosmos, including viewing the planets, moon, and stars.
