Tips & advice: Viewing #Eclipse2017 from America’s public lands

Mail from the U.S. Department of the Interior


On Monday, August 21, 2017, millions of people across the U.S. will get to see one of nature's most awe-inspiring sights -- a total solar eclipse. For the lucky people in the path of totality, which spans 70 miles and crosses portions of 14 states from Oregon to North Carolina, they'll get to watch as day turns into night when the moon blocks the sun. With wide-open spaces and low light pollution, public lands are the perfect place for viewing this rare event.

 

Whether you choose to watch the eclipse from an iconic national park or a lesser known (and just as beautiful) public land, we're sharing tips and advice that will help you have a safe and memorable experience.

Have a great adventure,
