Did you see how much space Anne-Louise and I took up this year? We both set up a portable toilet near each other, draped a tarp over both of them to create an entrance hall between us, the we both had scopes; my imaging rig, the 10" dob and the eq5 for camera mount. I thinke we consumed a large portion of the field as it was

We will likely be doing the same again even if we travel the path of the observatory tent. The tent is intended to be the dark site observatory.

I'm with Phil, I can accept donations of eyepieces
