Gods in the Sky: Dark Sky Telescope Tour

4639 Cherry Springs Road, Coudersport, PA 16915

Back in a time before television, internet, video games, and graphic novels there was the splendor and drama of the night sky.  Gods followed their whims, mortals struggled to please, monsters were slain, and heroes were born.  Join Jennie Lusk, Wild Asaph Outfitters’ Night Sky Guide, to explore the constellations and listen to stories from Native American and Greek Mythology.  View deep sky objects such as planets, nebulae, star clusters, red giants, and more.

On clear nights visitors flock to Cherry Springs State Park for the spectacular view at this International Dark Sky Park.  This program will be limited to 15 people.  Those participating will enjoy ample telescope time without long waits. 

Dress so you are comfortable for the anticipated night temperatures.  Recommended: chair, blanket, and small flashlight. We can supply red cellophane to cover lens.

Registration and Pre-Payment Required – Each person in your party must be pre-registered separately.  Registration will close at 3pm 2 days prior to class (or when full).  You may put your name on a waitlist if class is full.  Instructions on how to pre-pay will be given to each individual via email after you register. Registrants wishing to cancel prior to 48 hours before the event will be provided with a refund minus a $3.00 processing fee per person.  No refunds will be given to persons wishing to cancel after this deadline.  In the event of a cancellation by the instructor or park a full refund will be issued. 

The program will be cancelled in the event of rain, thunder, or overcast skies.
