Quadrantids Meteor Shower Hike SOLD OUT

Operated by: TerraMar Adventures

Event Leader: 

Binky Lee Preserve

Departure Address:

Chester Springs, PA 19425

Join us for a guided hike through the Binky Lee Wildlife Preserve. Binky Lee Preserve is an 89-acre expanse of former agricultural land that is being converted back to more natural woodlands and meadows. The view from atop the hill offers a rare glimpse of Chester County past—undeveloped woodlands and fields in all directions—and reminds us of the importance of saving places like Binky Lee. It is also the perfect place for us to stop and check out the Quadrantids Meteor Shower.

The Quadrantids are an above average shower, with up to 40 meteors per hour at their peak. The shower will peak this year on January 3 & 4. Best viewing will be from a dark location after midnight on the morning. Look for meteors radiating from the constellation Bootes. The first quarter moon will set by midnight, providing a good viewing opportunity.

Dress for the weather and bring a flashlight. We will be going even if there are clouds. We will meet in the parking lot with some Hot chocolate and cider to keep us warm.

If people are interested, we can meet up before the hike for dinner and a beer.
