Just returned from a 2 night stay, Thru 28 & Fri 29th.
arrived a 5K' elevation Thursday around 1600 hrs. skys cloudy & Smokey! especially in the SW. Was limited Viewing the 1st. night.. Friday however was clear enough to see all DSO's . The sun set in a dark blood red color as it slide Westward, reminded me of the Coronado Alpha/H filter view, only thing missing was the expected Solar prominences. Here is a shot of the sky evening of the first night . JM
