I believe Lowell has selected Hutch Mountain as the site for the Discovery 
Telescope.

You can see a topo map online through MapTech: 
http://mapserver.maptech.com/homepage/index.cfm?lat=34.774710000000006&lon=-111.387842&scale=100000&zoom=100&type=1&icon=0&width=498&height=498&searchscope=dom&scriptfile=http://mapserver.maptech.com/homepage/index.cfm&latlontype=DMS

If that outrageously long URL doesn't work, go to maptech.com, click on "online 
maps," (top, horizontal menu) and search for "Hutch Mountain" in Arizona. The 
map produced will be zoomed in all the way. Zoom out by clicking on the middle 
zoom setting. You'll see Hutch Mountain centered with Happy Jack near the 
bottom of the frame to the south.

Regards,

Bill
