My family and I were there from Thursday to Sunday, Beautiful viewing Thursday night, good crowds visiting the scopes. So many stars I had trouble finding things. Plus those rangers have some talent! But clouds and rain Friday and Saturday. They canceled and moved Fridays events and the key note speaker to Saturday. He gave his talk and showed some of his beautiful work. They showed the new ranger minutes about astronomy in the park. Then the movie The City Dark, the last 10 min of the movie got rained out. My family and I had fun doing other things. The one night of viewing was well worth the weekend in that dark sky. Even my wife, who said she did not ever remember seeing the milky way, now says she will miss seeing so many stars at local star parties.

My friend went to Great Basin this past weekend, and reports it was a total washout. Clouds and rain the entire weekend, much like here. _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy
