Is Moosecreek observing site still in use?
Good Day All,
After a very long hiatus from astronomy, I've been slowly starting to get out under the stars over the past year or so.? Most of my observing thus far has been from my Orleans backyard or the RASC's site, FLO.? I was wondering if it is still okay to use Moosecreek to observe?? I've known of it for a long time, but I've never actually been there.? I very much enjoy observing at FLO but it is around an hour drive from my place, so not always worth the trip.? It looks like Moose creek is closer to 35 mins from my place and I could see myself using it on those marginal/moon nights.? I note that Pierre's latest post on the site was last year and included instructions to call/text the land owner before use.? Is this still the best practice? Thanks in advance for any information/help. Clear Skies, Matt Weeks |
Yes Matt, this is still the best practice.? Pierre might have more to add regarding this. Jim?

Where can i find directions to Moosecreek? I too am in Orleans and Moosecreek would be more accessible than FLO. Thank you so much! Geoff On Tuesday, June 20, 2023, 11:06 AM, Matt Weeks <northern.stargazer@...> wrote:

This is the post Pierre made about a year ago to which I was referring.
