‘RING OF FIRE’ ANNULAR SOLAR ECLIPSE

October 14, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

On the morning of October 14, 2023, a rare annular solar eclipse in which a smaller-than-average new moon moves across, but fails to block completely, the sun to cause a ‘ring of fire’. This eclipse will last approximately 5 minutes and Grand Canyon National Park South Rim will be very close to the path of this rare event.  Book direct with Eclipse rate so we know that you want free viewing glasses.
