Wayne, one of the best sessions I ever had was from Gooseberry. Next day I limited-out on rainbows from the shore of Fish Lake. Beautiful area. C. --- Wayne Reese <wreese@hubwest.com> wrote:
I need to convince you all to come to Fish Lake later in the summer, 9000 ft. paved no dust parking lot, flush restrooms, the best seeing around. Wayne Mountains do obscure the horizons however.

Bob,
I have observed several times from the top of the Skyline Drive. I have found the seeing to be ok, but not great. The wind is also usually always blowing.
Overall I would rate this site as just above average. I have not tried farther north near Francis Peak.

Along the line of Messier Marathon efforts: How much advantage would a mountain top site be (Like the Francis Peak radar site behind Farmington)? and How much aperture is enough for a light polluted area?
