If you happen to be in southwest Colorado sometime, I could direct you
to a place to watch the skies from at Ridgway State Park that is a
great spot for viewing. No lights. Many of the local stargazers
group go there to set up their equipment for viewing. Best place I
know of in this area, just need your mosquito spray.
