I was in Jasper this past weekend, the largest dark sky preserve, and was excited to watch it from the comfiness ofmy bivy sac but alas it decided to rain. I'm hoping it will clear up in the next couple nights so I get another chance

It's not overcast today and you can see a ton of stars, like the milky way line thing and all that but didn't really see any meteors/shooting stars.

Went out Monday and saw 75 in around an hour and a half. Pretty awesome! Also just looking at the stars is pretty cool. The fact that the light you are seeing from each and every star has traveled through countless light years of space to be absorbed into your retina seems like a privilege to me.
