Gets pretty warm in Ariz from now on so this last weekend went camping in the KOFA area north of the YPG. nice dark sky to the north.At Casa Grande the north sky is light because of the Phx light...

My best views thru my 16" telescope were at an astronomy resort in Mayhill, NM at 7400'. I could see intricate detail in the dark lanes of M31 & M51. Photograph like views. There are a lot of research grade telescopes in the area. The arrangement of the mountains make for good telescope viewing. The resort stopped taking guests and I'm not familiar with camping in that area. If someone knows of an RV campground or boondocking site in the area Cloudcroft, NM or Mayhill, NM, please let me know. I'd like to go back.
