🌕Easy Full Moon Hike & Potluck at Olympia Farms

No white lights allowed on my night hikes. Bring a red or green headlamp, like this one: https://amzn.to/3VgjTWI

On a recent hike we discovered a great spot for a Full Moon Hike and Potluck. Its up on a hill overlooking Olympia Farms at Rancho Potrero. Atop the hill we’ll find relatively new picnic benches sitting on some old foundations dating back to the 1980s.

In March, the Full Moon is the Worm Moon; if it occurs on or after March 21, it is also the Paschal Moon. Tonight it will be 99.1% full.

🧺🍷Bring food and drink to share. Since this will be an easy hike you can load up those backpacks more than usual 😋

Sunset: 7:10 pm
Moonrise: 6:55 pm

⚠️No white lights allowed on my full moon hikes. Bring a red or green headlamp, like this one: https://amzn.to/3VgjTWI. If your vision requires a white light, do not attend this hike.

At 5.5 miles and with 850′ of total ascent, I am rating this hike EASY+ — see the HWD Hike Rating Guide.

Directions
We will meet at the trailhead where S. Wendy Drive ends at Potrero Rd. If you require a real address, point your GPS to 1360 S Wendy Dr, Newbury Park, CA 91320 and park on Potrero. Look for the alcoholics wearing backpacks 🤪
