Hi

C an anyone point me to a Map to the Crowley Observing Site (within the site)?

I've searched a bit for the Crowley Observing site. Nothing so far. I can get to the Museum but where from there?  I'd like to drag my SCT next weekend there to practice my meager skills in dark skies.

Hi

I have a 10" LX200 Classic with a finder.  A novice and have trouble finding alignment stars.  Trouble finding any star for that matter! I know the stars naked eye but under the 100X crosshairs, I'm lost a lot of the time.

Would a Telrad or a Rigel Quick Finder work as an aid?  Any member experience?
