Hi Bay Area Imagers,
I'm planning a one- or two-night visit to a dark sky site near Stonyford, California at the next new moon cycle.
The best window of opportunity will be between June 12-June 20. I'd be setting up in a camp ground that has horizon sky visibility, Bortle 2 and away from the coastal fog.
Does anyone want to join me? If so contact me with a private message for maps, photos and more information.

Hi Jerry, I would like to join you, but have house guests on the 11-13, and I leave for GSSP on the 14th. You should consider going to The Golden State Star Party. It's a bit further to drive, but Bortle 1, and opportunity to meet other like minded folks. Not sure how many have registered at this point, but the limit is 350 (I think).

Hi John,
I considered the GSSP and even reserved a place. I changed my mind as I hear it's very hot and windy during the day, it's a long drive and I don't want to set up a tent.
What I'm doing instead is trying to find some property to buy or rent in Mendocino county. There's still Bortle 1 sites there and it's half the driving time.
It would be great to discuss this idea with one or two Bay area astrophotographers if I can find the people who have the money and time to get involved with such a project.

Hi Aris,
Thanks for the offer! Where do you sleep at GSSP?
I was going to go too but didn't want to bring all my camping gear as well as my astrophotography equipment. There's a few motels nearby but then I'd have to break down my gear at the end of the night...
