I'm contemplating the Lowell Star Party next week as opposed to the All Arizona star part, which I truly enjoy except for the gnats/bugs during the day. However, I'm a little concerned since it is only 4 miles west of Flagstaff/Mars hill that the light dome may be too bright. Does anyone have any comments on this or can someone give me a comparison to other observing sites we use (Cherry, 5MM, All AZ, Flatiron...).
