Hi Mike,
Like most others, I would highly recommend locating your obs where you will be able to see at least as low as the SCP. If you can't locate far enough north to see the SCP, then you will miss out on some objects permanently. I also have a line of tall trees just to my south, but I can still see down to about 30 deg elevation, which from here (not far from you - apparently), is about 8 degrees below the SCP.
This means the the Southern Cross is clear of my trees at around 2200 hrs at this time of year - which I can tolerate.
Good luck with your ponderings!
Chris
