Your group has access to some awesome scopes.
Very impressive!

I took the liberty of making the link clickable. Great site, and great facility!

If I can make one small observation on the web site, it's that the actual location of the facility is very hard to find. It was some time before I could discover what state it's in!

Adding some of the location information that's in the Visitor Guide and moving it to the home page (at least a nearby city and the fact that it's in Massachussetts) would be helpful.

Overall, it's very well laid out and very informative. It makes me want to visit!

Unfortunately there is still 2-3 feet of snow on the access
road.We probably won't be able to observe there until May.
I am anxious to get out under a dark sky.

Looks like my observing area except that by me the sun was not out and we already got 2" more of the big heavy flakes.

The snow is gone what a difference after two weeks.
Here is a pic from April 5th.
