Dark Sky Camping
22' Class C, Home Port: Florida I am looking for a campsite in a Dark Sky region in the U.S. We want to see the constellations in a dark sky. I assume we will have to dry camp for a couple of nights ...

if you want true black sky in the USA. the best if the only place left is black rock desert in the north west corner of nevada.

bring twice the fuel, twice the food, and four times the water you think you might need.
and more than one motor vehicle. no cell here. might get ham. or a sat phone, but nothing else.
get all before leaving fallon nevada. as the ONLY place to get anything north of hwy 80 is the burg of gerlatch. and they have almost nothing.
get out on the playa, and drive north a couple hrs you are over the curve of the earth from everything. if you did not bring it... it just does not exist.
and watch out on the rd north to and south home, as you cross tribal land, and yes they do have speed traps, (only source of income).
