Saturday, January 3rd, 2026, 6:00pm: Goat Hill MOON LIGHT HIKE!

General info for all hikes and walks: Hikes and walks are $5 for members, and $10 for non-members (become a member). Unless otherwise noted, the pace for hikes is moderate, lasting 3-5 hours, covering 3-5 miles, the terrain is hilly, footing is sometimes uneven, and we follow trails and possibly paved or dirt roads. Walks are easier and shorter than hikes, and usually follow paved or dirt roads, no trails. The guide may periodically stop and talk along the way. Bring sturdy, comfortable walking or hiking shoes, water, snack, bug spray, rain poncho, and camera. Shorts or long pants are OK. For day hikes, bring a hat and sun block. For night hikes, bring a small flashlight. There are usually about 20 people. We depart about 30 minutes after the posted start time. For some hikes, we will meet at the indicated location, then drive a short distance to the hike location.

Specific info for this hike: The St. Croix Hiking Association has scheduled a moon light hike to Goat Hill on the beautiful eastern tip of St Croix! The area is known for the first sunrise of the easternmost point of the United States. It is a moderate hike, steep in some areas of the dirt trail. It is about 674 feet above sea level, with a great view of the east end of the island. We will discuss the natural, marine, historical, and cultural resources of the area. It's about 1.5 to 2 miles roundtrip. Bring flashlight (and maybe a spare), water, snack, and your cellphone for taking photos. Olasee Davis, ecologist, is our tour guide.

The meeting place is at Cramer's Park for 6:00pm in the evening.
