Finally got some good double star viewing in. Seeing was typical desert conditions but got good views the AL doubles star list from Alpha Leonis down to Mu Bootis, with the exception of N Hydrae. Also viewed 24 Coma Berences that was on Tyler Allred's website. Good yellow/blue wide double, similar to Albireo.
I've heard the astronomers in Cedar City go up to the radar towers on a dirt road before you get to Cedar Breaks. I heard about it on Cloudy Nights. It would be an overnight trip for me. If it were me, I would camp at the campground near Cedar Breaks because that area is crawling with deer and other critters. We almost hit a porcupine one year traveling back to Duck Creek Village a few years ago. It is pretty dark there if you can get away from the car lights near the road.

pretty sure I saw one (observing daily for 3 months). It also seemed associated with a CME.
You actually saw a flare? White-light, or H-a? I've never seen a
visual solar flare in my life.
Did you have the Drum Bus this year? ;-)

Dad, me, and another guy who's name escapes me right now (Brad?) spent the day at my daughter's school doing solar observing with the kids.
The sun is really active right now, nots of prominences, flares, spots, etc. if you can, it's good viewing right now.
