Dew is rare. Hargraves, Mt Blackheath & Katoomba Airfield are all above the surrounding valleys. No rich, moist farmland & pastures. Just dry rocky ridge tops. Driving home from the Airfield I've often come across dew & fog from Katoomba onwards, but the Airfield was crystal clear.
All of these three site have ample room. However, the Airfield is private land, with loos, an office with a combustion heater to meet & sleep in, & the safety private property offers. Hargraves is darker, but soooo much colder (as the boys found out), & you need to lug your gear from the car park to the observing site some 25m away.
