Hi Paul,
Excellent writing! Very poetic. Very well done.
You mentioned wanting to go to higher elevations. I would recommend
Forest Road 409 above Big Lake. I've been there occasionally. It
is at the 9200 foot level. Best view of Jupiter I ever got was there.
Absolutely crystal clear... Need to avoid the monsoon of course...
This shot was taken while we were there during a monsoon storm:

That one scared me and I took the camera back into the motorhome
and quit for the night. :-) Plain old 50mm lens (Canon AE-1) and
film so you can tell that the bolt hit the ground within 1/8 of a mile...
This is a 1997 film shot from that location:
