This is the larger one they make. The smaller one is 90mm. It is the first scope that I bought and I was very happy with it. It is very small and has reasonably high quality optics that don't need collumating etc.
Good luck with the camping. It's pretty cold at present up here in the New England.
As for women in Astronomy, our local club (UNENTAS) is pretty evenly matched for men and women. Try your local club and you may be surprised.
