with less than 25 minutes of totality, if the mountains cut out any totality at all, it is a no-go for a non-Stansbury resident. I think Little Mountain will be a MUCH better alternative for this particular eclipse. C. --- Kim Hyatt <khyatt@smithlayton.com> wrote:
Patrick and Bruce Grim did check this out. As I recall, the mountains won't interfere much. You may want to call one of them for details.

Has anyone determined if this weekend's eclipse will be visible from SPOC? Totality is very brief for this eclipse, and from Utah it rises already entering the umbra (from a theoretically flat horizon).
Im wondering if it will be essentially over before cresting the mountain ridge as seen from Stansbury.
Can someone with a planetarium program check this out?
Thanks
C.
