Squaw Valley USA’s summer stargazing sessions at High Camp, elevation 8,200’, has quickly become one of Squaw’s most popular summer activities.
For that reason, Stargazing Sessions will take place every Friday and Saturday evening in July and August (excluding full moon dates). Short seminars on astronomy are offered to those who are interested and astronomers will be available to provide information on telescope use and sky watching.
Stargazing is free with the purchase of a Cable Car ticket (cable car is discounted after 5 pm). This summer’s dates include July 4-5, July 11-12, July 25-26, Aug. 1-2, Aug. 8-9, Aug. 22-23, and Aug. 29-30, 2008.
Professional astronomers Paul and Gigi Giles bring a variety of high-powered telescopes to High Camp, offering guests the chance to explore the majesty and wonders of the night sky.
Summer’s clear, crisp evenings, and Squaw Valley USA’s high elevation and light pollution-free skies create an excellent opportunity to view a variety of astronomical phenomenon not regularly seen by the naked eye such as constellations, planets, satellites, galaxies, nebula, star clusters, double stars, the Milky Way and even meteor showers.
The telescopes are available beginning at dusk and guests may come and go at their leisure. Guests simply take turns looking through the telescopes. On busy evenings there may be a short wait. All ages are welcome. No reservations are needed. Stargazing is free with a Cable Car ticket. After 5 p.m. Cable Car tickets are $12 for adults, youth & seniors and $5 for children.
NOTE: Stargazing can be canceled due to wind or other weather so if you think the weather might be questionable please call (530-583-6985) ahead of time to confirm.
