Night Hiking Bay Area

I am Cameron a gentle hiker, explorer and sonic landscaper. Join me as I lead people on night hikes and listen deeper to the sounds around us (through the use of audio recorders and specialised microphones and amplification) and open up or other senses such as touch and smell.

A few times I set off on hikes late in the afternoon, and ended up walking back in the dark. I also walked in the dark many times while on camping trips. It was a different experience. My ears opened, my sense of smell was enhanced. I felt very connected to nature. While I still needed to see with a flashlight or headlamp there were times I turned if off completely and took in the sound, smell, feeling and vibes of the forest, shoreline, or hills, without being able to see much.

Join me in a gentle night hike, nothing too rigorous or physically demanding. You will also have the opportunity to listen deeply to the earth through audio recording devices and special microphones for enhancing and amplifying sound. There will be two offerings. 1. Starting a hike at 3 pm and hiking into the dark until 8 or 9 pm. 2. Starting at 3:am and walking until sunrise.
