I have not looked through a scope now for a couple of months. (Bad ankle then Wisconsin for 3 weeks) I had no usable nights the entire time I was in Wisconsin....
... What are the predictions for activity level? I'd like to go out but would prefer to stay closer to home than LBV- Palomar? Cheers, Paul Sterngold ...
It looks like I will have to look at them from home. I was at Palomar last weekend and the sky was not very dark so I think you will have to go out pretty far...
I'll be watching them from the window of an airplane Wednesday night :) Maybe the altitude will let me have a good show? With little or no marine layer,...
Anyone interested in going to the Palomar Turnout tonight. LBV? I have never been there in August. Last year the seeing was great at the turnout. Bob [Non-text...
LBV was my destination last night, it was late when I left from work at OPT (6:00pm), and the clouds were everywhere on the way out, it was even sprinkling...
Are there any dark sites in the San Diego area that are easily accessible with a medium-sized RV? TDS doesn't allow RV's (I think) and LBV is possible but a...
Ed, I think that RVs are tolerated if not allowed at TDS (at least, I have seen them there). There certainly arenąt sites of any sort but I have seen one ...
Borrego Springs. Nightfall. Look it up. Coming in a month. Type in RTMC and Nightfall in Google. Ditto on the BLM land. While it's a hike for you Lucerne Dry...
... Yep, forgot about that. An Astronomical RV paradise. Coming right up, I believe. Will you be there? ... Sound suspiciously like rocketry sites. Great...
... For first time in many a moon it's not during CalStar. So I am contemplating it... ... It is. But not 'generally' at night. And even if they are night...
Hi Ed, Depends on the size of the RV I suppose. I've seen some pretty big land yachts out there at LBV but if you don't keep an eye to the sky and the other on...
Thanks everyone! I bought a 22' RV. Should haul my C11 just fine. :) I got so exhausted trying to get rest in a tent or the car. It takes me a few days to...
... think) ... Ed, My family and I have been going here for a number of years. They are just one mile north of LBV on s22. They have full hook ups, a pool and...
I am thinking of going of to Palomar tonight. I am leaning toward the observatory campground. Fires are not permitted there now so it should be pretty good. ...
... Wish I could join you, Bob, but I'm just too beat. Got back from Australia Wednesday afternoon, and I'm just too jet-lagged! I was only in Australia...
... I'm sorry that should read S2 not S22... Sorry slip of the finger. Tim P.S. If anybody is interested we will be up at William Heisse campground near Julian...
Thanks for the tip Tim. Are the owners really astro friendly? I mean find you place away from lanterns, RV lights, campfires. etc?? Sounds intriguing... Jeff ...
There is no prohibition against members camping at TDS either in RVs or in tents. What is not allowed, however, is to hook up your RV to site electricity or...
Anyone brave enough to bear (or bare) the heat?? We'll be at Stagecoach trails with A/C most of the weekend but willing to come out Sat or Sun night to LBV...
... I'm considering it, Dorys :) Probably Sunday night if I make it out, Saturday's full of "honey-dos" right now. No work Monday, yahoo! I'll post up here if...
... If you do decide to come out to LBV please stop by the campground first. I won't have email after tomorrow afternoon. If no one comes out then I plan to...
I've had some of my best viewing at the campground and with most campers their in bed and a sleep before the real viewing or imaging gets started. For you Paul...
... enjoyed Stagecoach Trails. Do try to get a spot up by the water tower. It may be a little expensive (when compared to state parks ) but well worth the full...
