I attended a stargazing meetup at Moraine Park in Rocky Mountain National Park in July 2013.
Long's Peak dominates the view.
These folks are setting up their scopes. Everyone was very gracious about letting strangers gaze through the eyepieces.
Some of these telescopes were handmade.
Later, clouds were rolled in. The astronomers were unperturbed.
Light from the Colorado sunset brushed the clouds.
Thanks for looking!
