Thanks both of you. In theory the altitude should help the seeing, but there are so many factors. I'm anxious to try Monte Cristo some time too.

Duschene ridge at Wolf Creek pass, Ut. is one of the few places I have experienced superlative "seeing." We have used 400x to very good effect on a 20" reflector. This is not a frequent occurance. The greatest advantages of Wolf Creek are transparency, (often superlative),) and proximity. Space On!
