Eclipse is late morning to early afternoon, so sun will still be in the east - I'd have to look at a simulation, but it may not be ideal viewing from the coast ________________________________ From: David Bennett <dlbennett@mac.com> To: Utah Astronomy <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Tuesday, May 22, 2012 2:59 PM Subject: [Utah-astronomy] Total Solar Eclipse of 2017 AUG 21 I love the NASA eclipse site with the google maps integration. Here's the one for the 2017 Eclipse if you haven't seen: http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/SEgoogle/SEgoogle2001/SE2017Aug21Tgoogle.html The Southern Tetons are sure looking good. Perhaps Jenny Lake or even a backpacking trip into the Indian Lake area? I'd also consider south of Lincoln City, Oregon but would be worried about cloud cover being right on the coast.
