[Utah-astronomy] Observing?

Since Joe Bauman asked why the dirth of postings, here is one. Is anyone planning or interested in any pre-Messier Marathon observing sessions? Friday night looks like a possibilty for a few hours, and Sunday night looks like it has some potential, weather-wise. Does anyone know whether the pit-n'-pole is dry or muddy? Any other dry sites less light polluted than SPOC? Mike Bailey
