Summary

Forget the glow of city lights—summer’s here and Washington’s skies are clearing for epic stargazing. Even though the state has no certified Dark Sky Parks (Goldendale Observatory lost its status in 2017 thanks to a mix-up), it’s still a top spot with the nation’s largest public telescope. Head to Hurricane Ridge for Milky Way views from a mile high, or drive up Mount Rainier to Paradise or Camp Muir for zero light pollution. Free programs, volunteer rangers, and mirrored Reflection Lakes await—your cosmic adventure starts now. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
