Re: [Utah-astronomy] Observing Report from the Gravel Pit

It just seems that seeing is never good down in Southern Utah once the summer heat begins. The seeing is always better up in the mountains at the higher elevations like Kolob Reservoir or Cedar Breaks area. The air isn't as turbulent as the lower and hotter elevations. Jim and I did observe the secondary at about the 4 o'clock position up at Kolob Reservoir. I hope the new concrete that is being laid this week will not affect the seeing. Grass is always better but I don't think that would be practical. Debbie
