Bob: The special use permit from the Park Service allows us to partition a portion of the parking area off for ALCON attendees. The public will have ready access to Rainbow Point that is true, yet we are allowed to restrict access to at least a portion of the parking area where we are observing. Some of these details will be worked out at future ALCON planning meetings. Thanks. Lowell
I hoped you would chime in. Thanks for the clarification.

In the past they locked the gate on the road to Rainbow Point at dark just past Bryce Point. Is this not the case for ALCON? -----Original Message----- From: utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Lowell Lyon Sent: Tuesday, November 23, 2010 12:21 PM To: utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com Subject: [Utah-astronomy] ALCON 2011 viewing at Rainbow Point Bob: The special use permit from the Park Service allows us to partition a portion of the parking area off for ALCON attendees.

the only thing that concerns me about Rainbow Point is driving back to Ruby's Inn without hitting a deer. That road is loaded with deer at night. Debbie On Tue, Nov 23, 2010 at 3:36 PM, Don J. Colton <djcolton@piol.com> wrote:

Lowell, will those who set up at Rainbow Point have to take down every night? Thanks, Joe --- On Tue, 11/23/10, Debbie <astrodeb@beyondbb.com> wrote:

I wouldn't drive back at night. Just sleep in your car until daylight. That drive is about 21 miles to Ruby's with a 45 mile speed limit - a long drive if you are tired. You have take down every morning. -----Original Message----- From: utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Debbie Sent: Tuesday, November 23, 2010 5:09 PM To: Utah Astronomy Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] ALCON 2011 viewing at Rainbow Point the only thing that concerns me about Rainbow Point is driving back to Ruby's Inn without hitting a deer.
