8:52 a.m.
I drove to a hiking trailhead above Wasatch Blvd., then went up in the snow -- along a trail that switchbacked up the mountain -- stood in the snow from about 5 p.m. and scanned the sky, seeing nothing but clouds and haze -- until around 5:55, when the comet must have sunk below the haziest areas, and I got a view. I took a bunch of digital photos, none impressive. I am working to make a stack that may be worth looking at. I would call it an OK comet but definitely not great. -- Joe
