Joe, I observed from the trampoline in my back yard for an hour starting at 10:45 pm. I estimate the ZHR to be about 15. Of course, I live in Bountiful, and was observing pretty early. Work comes early too. I did see M31 naked eye, though. It was not terribly obvious. Happy to hear that one of your photos turned out. Brent --- Joe Bauman <bau@desnews.com> wrote:
Report from Little Mountain: I ended up at Little Mountain, where things were pretty zoo-ey for a long time. Awful light pollution, had to fight through cars to find a place to set up, people continually coming and going and having a party. Also, I didn't see a huge number of meteors. I'll be writing a story, but I don't yet know if I managed to capture any of those streaks on film -- they had to be pretty bright where I was to even show up, I think. Best wishes, Joe
