Come enjoy an evening on the trail with Nature Up North! With only our headlamps and the moonlight to guide us, we will hike the one mile trail of medium to steep grade to the fire tower on top of Mt. Azure where we will enjoy the dazzling constellations of the night sky. Make sure to wear hiking boots or sneakers and bring a backpack with bug spray, water (about 1 liter), a raincoat, a fleece, and a headlamp. No hiking experience is needed. All are welcome on this unique nocturnal experience!

We will be meeting at 7:30 p.m. at the Brewer Bookstore on St. Lawrence Campus and carpooling in a van to Azure.

If you want to drive yourself, the trip takes about 45-60 minutes…
1. Take Route 11B from Potsdam to Nicholville
2. Turn south onto Rt. 458
3. 4 miles past St. Regis Falls turn right onto Blue Mountain Rd.
4. Continue 7 miles on dirt road
5. Look for trailhead and sign for parking on the right
