Salut Dominic

La Verendry is about 4 to 4.5 hours for us, but after driving up there
last september I was sold on it being an excellent spot. The downside is
that all equipment has to be portable as you can't leave your setup on
location during the day. They won't let you camp at the runway area.
I hope to get up there this september and maybe early october to try
some darksky photography. Last september I arrived and got my mount and
guidescope set up just in time for the aurora.

George

Clear skies and good health
