Planning a dark skies or aurora trip? Here’s what you actually need.

In this week’s Travel Talk episode, host Kim Anderson shares five essentials for planning an unforgettable stargazing or Northern Lights trip — without overpacking or overthinking it.

Inspired by recent conversations with Outside Magazines Dark Skies columnist, Stephanie Vermillion (Episode 172) and location astrologer, KJ Atlas (Episode 170), this episode is all about simplifying your astro-adventure and setting you up for success under the stars.

From light pollution maps to layering like a pro, you’ll learn exactly what to pack, how to find dark sky locations, and which apps help you make the most of the night sky — no telescope or fancy gear required.

You’ll walk away with:

  • The top 5 things every dark skies traveler needs
  • How to capture frame worthy photos without all the fancy gear
  • The best tools to find dark sky locations and forecast the aurora

If you’ve ever dreamed of stargazing in a Dark Sky Park or chasing the Northern Lights in Iceland, this episode is your no-stress prep guide.
