Here's my normal viewing site, and this is where my observatory will be built. There's a little Las Vegas Sky glow visible about 80 miles to the southeast, and a few annoying yard lights about 1/3 to 1/2 mile away, but it's still almost pristine overhead: I can get to Mag. 15.3 with my 10" on a good night.
