Discover Darrington’s Night Sky
Darrington is a small rural town surrounded by mountains from the north, east and west. Whitehorse and Jumbo Mountains are the two most iconic backdrops of Darrington and block some of the light which spreads from the not too distant urban areas.
I have loved the stars to fondly to be fearful of the night – Sarah Williams
