Yeah I wasn't quite sure I was sane
but I was keen to take advantage of the clear sky above the mountain and Mamma Mia, yet again, the seeing didn't disappoint. The improved seeing I have over my last location still feels like a novelty and like it won't last or something buuut it persists
My move to Eagleview has really shown me how much location assists and made me want to have a scope in the Andes, ideally the Atacama proper and over 2000m, would be good (please
). The guys with scopes there must be literally over the Moon
