For Hunting & Fishing Sun/Moon Planning

Exact Moon and Sun Times for Any Past Hunt or Trip

Pull the sunrise, sunset, twilight, moonrise, moonset, moon phase and the weather for a specific spot and date, down to the minute, in local time, with every value cited. Review a past outing with a clear, sourced record of the conditions.

Conditions.Site builds a clear, cited report of the sun position, moon position and weather for any place and any past date and time. Look up the exact moonrise and moonset by date and location, the sunrise and sunset times for a hunt, and the temperature, wind direction and cloud cover that same morning. Every number is traced back to the public source it came from, so you can review an outing after the fact and compare conditions across your best sits.

The problem

Where the usual sources come up short when you need to establish what the conditions were.

Generic almanacs use the wrong spot

A statewide sunrise or moon table is not your treestand. You need the exact times for the coordinates you actually hunted or fished, not the nearest city an app decided to round to.

You can't reconstruct a past morning

After a good sit you want to know what happened: what time did the moon set, how high was it, what was the wind doing at first light. Most tools only look forward, not back.

Weather and sky data live in separate places

Moon phase in one app, sunrise in another, the day's temperature and wind somewhere else. Stitching them together for one date and one spot is tedious and error-prone.

No record you can trust or share

Screenshots from random sites give you numbers with no source. You want figures you can point to, cited to where they came from, when you compare notes with a hunting partner.

How it's used

Review the morning the deer moved

You had movement at 6:40 a.m. Pull that date and your GPS spot to see the exact sunrise, the moonset time and moon altitude, and the temperature and wind direction at first light. Every value is cited to its source.

Compare moon phase across a season

Run reports for several past hunt dates and line up the moon phase, illuminated fraction and moonrise or moonset timing against the dates you saw the most activity at that stand.

Check a fishing outing after the fact

Look up the moonrise, moonset and phase for the date and lake you fished, plus that day's wind, cloud cover and pressure, and keep a cited record of the conditions.

Settle a debate with your hunting party

Was moonset really before shooting light that morning? Pull the cited times for the exact date and location so everyone is working from the same, sourced record.

What you get

Every value is cross-checked across independent public sources and cited back to its origin.

Moon phase, moonrise and moonset to the minute

Moonrise and moonset for your exact date and location, plus phase, illuminated fraction, and the moon's altitude and azimuth. Nearby terrain and buildings are factored into whether the moon was actually above your visible horizon.

Sunrise, sunset and twilight for your spot

Exact sunrise, sunset, solar noon and twilight times, with the sun's altitude and azimuth. Local terrain and nearby buildings are accounted for, so you see whether the sun had truly cleared the ridge, not just an idealized flat-horizon time.

The day's weather, cross-checked and cited

Temperature, wind speed, direction and gusts, cloud cover, precipitation, humidity, visibility and pressure for that date, all reconciled across independent public sources like ERA5 reanalysis, NOAA/NWS station records and personal weather stations, with every value cited.

A clean, cited PDF you can keep

A one-page visual summary, an hourly table, a per-source comparison and per-station detail. Every number traces to its origin, and your reports are saved to your account so you can build a season-long reference.

How it works

  1. Pick your spot and date

    Search an address or intersection, or drop in GPS coordinates for the exact stand, blind or launch. Choose the past date and time to the minute, in the location's own local time.

  2. We assemble the sun, moon and weather

    Conditions.Site pulls the sun and moon positions and the historical weather for that place and moment, reconciling multiple independent public sources and citing each value.

  3. Read it or export the cited PDF

    See the sunrise, sunset, moonrise, moonset, phase and the day's conditions on screen, then download the paginated, cited report. It's saved to your account for later.

Frequently asked questions

What was the moon phase and moonrise time on the morning I hunted?
Enter your hunt date and either the address or GPS coordinates of your spot, and Conditions.Site returns the moon phase, illuminated fraction and the exact moonrise time for that place in local time, along with the moon's altitude and azimuth. Every value is cited to its source.
Can I get sunrise, sunset and moonset times for a past date at my hunting spot?
Yes. This is a historical tool, so you can look up any past date. Give it the location and date and you'll get sunrise, sunset, solar noon, twilight, moonrise and moonset, all to the minute in the location's local time, with terrain factored into the visible horizon.
What was the wind direction and temperature on the day of my hunt?
The report includes the temperature and the wind speed, direction and gusts for that date and location, plus cloud cover, precipitation, humidity, visibility and pressure. These are reconciled across independent public sources and cross-checked, with each figure cited.
How do I look up historical sunrise, sunset and moon times for a specific location?
Search an address or intersection, or drop in GPS coordinates, then pick the past date and time. Conditions.Site generates a cited report with the sun and moon positions and times for that exact spot, which you can view on screen or download as a PDF.
Can I get the moon's altitude and azimuth for a past night at GPS coordinates?
Yes. Enter the coordinates and the date and time to the minute, and the report gives the moon's altitude and azimuth for that moment, along with moonrise, moonset and phase. Nearby terrain and buildings are considered when determining whether the moon was above your visible horizon.
Does this predict the best moon phase or when animals will move?
No. Conditions.Site is a historical record tool, not a forecast or a solunar predictor. It gives you the exact, cited sun, moon and weather conditions for past dates so you can review your own outings and see for yourself which conditions lined up with movement.
