The trail is great at night for star gazing. If there is a full moon, the steps are easy to ascend.
Lights from the communities surrounding Sequoia off to the west. On the east side of Moro Rock, there are very few lights, making it great for star gazing.

Watching the stars come out at night on top of Moro Rock is great. Looking toward the Western Divide, there is little light pollution and the mountains spread before you, especially if the moon is out.
Looking back toward the parking lot, you can see the wooded nature of the surrounding area.
Views of the Sierra Nevada Range abound from the top of Moro Rock.
