Re 1-
You should plan for the Marathon without regard for the land trust session. We¡¯ll be fine. Clear skies is everything. You¡¯ll be miserable if you move it to the 26th but only the 25th is clear. Non-marathoners will carry the water 4/25, even if it¡¯s just me.?
and anyone who wants to set up here on the 25th with the intention of pulling an all nighter is welcome to do so. No one will get chased out. But at a minimum the first 5 or so objects will be obscured at dusk and I don¡¯t think M30 could be caught before dawn. I haven¡¯t inventoried what might be below Polaris either.?
You have my urging to do what is best for the Marathoners.?
