The idea of a Utah star party is not new. We talked about starting a similar activity back in the 80s when we observed from the Bald Mountain site. If I remember correctly, this was before the Texas Star Party started. My memory says that the only private parties were Stellafane, the Winter Star Party in Florida, and Riverside. The idea did not continue because we didn't feel like there was really room for another large gathering. I think times have changed (or we were proved wrong), and I would support the idea of a Utah gathering. Brent
