GTA Observing Thread

[somecdnguy]

I'm going to be a little scarce for observing sessions for the next little bit (possibly rest of summer). I'll still post if the others guys head up however.

Forks tonight is a go, last time before the moon gets bothersome for a while

Hello all,

Fellow GTA resident,
I’d like to come out to the next viewing at fork of the credit, can anyone tell me where exactly you go and meet?
I’d like to make a trip out there beforehand…

Thanks!

We may be heading up tonight if things clear out a little

Looks like it may be clear indeed....may consider it....do you mind telling me directions to the meeting spot/parking lot?

Thanks!
Omar

The Milky way is visible at this site correct?

[somecdnguy]

forks of the credit park - Google Maps

Just drive in, if we're not in the main parking lot head back down the road and there is a gate on the south side, we should be in that field. Will be there around 9ish and yes the milky way is visible on a moonless night.

ahhhh I missed this one. When is the next one?

[funny Tees]

Sorry, couldn't make it.....actualy had to take my son to the hospital, he cut his finger - hes ok.

Let me know if its on again this weekend...?

Thanks

Not sure about this weekend, I wont be heading up as I have other plans. But if it's clear out it's pretty safe to assume there will be some people there. I know Efston Science has been having a group up there quite often recently.
