The Pit is the closest to me, but I'd like to bring my wife tonight so would like to go somewhere more scenic. Anyone going to Wolf Creek Pass? I signed up for SLAS on Tuesday but haven't heard back yet; not sure if there is a private star party tonight since there is the SPOC thing tomorrow. Didn't know about UVAC so just signed up for that; the public party at Pine Hollow sounds fun. Seems like somewhere at the top of the pass might be better but I guess that would be a lot harder for people to get to. On Thu, Jul 13, 2017 at 3:38 PM, David Moulton <dave@themoultons.net> wrote:
I am planning on going out to the Pit 'n Pole on the 21st. I'll mostly be taking photos, but I will probably bring my 4" refractor as well. Moonrise is 12:50 this Sunday morning, so I will probably stay in the yard this weekend.
As an aside, on the 22nd the Utah Valley Astronomy Club will be holding a star party in conjunction with the Timpanogos Cave rangers. It will be held up American Fork Canyon at the Pine Hollow Trailhead campground. Here are directions:

We've done one already this summer that was well attended. Several scopes to look through.

I suppose, but I'm limited to weekends and "normal" hours so I figured this weekend would still give me a couple hours before the moon came up.

I think it's a bit early yet. About the 19th is the earliest I had planned to go.

I've been scopeless and haven't been on here for several years. Anyone going out this weekend or next? I missed last month's perfect new moon so don't want to miss this month's.
