Thanks for the comments. One of the best things about a star party is being able to look through scopes that you would otherwise never use (but also the worst thing if you catch aperture fever I guess). A 46" scope must need a big ladder...
Thanks for the link to the book Gary. I'll definitely have to check that out. It's amazing how people managed to live out in the desert like that.
Here's a couple of extra photos, just because.
