My daughter accompanied me to the top of the mountain, over which a cloud front had just passed and was approaching Denver in the distance. We were alone on top of the world for most of the night. It's not technically perfect, but may be my favorite astro shot ever for the memories.

Aks6674 Senior Member More info | Yeah, wish I got more time in this place. I'm in Dallas and have to drive for hours for a decent dark sky. There are darker ones in west Texas, but they get hazy... Nothing like clean air and dark skies at 10,000+ feet!

Aks6674 Senior Member More info | I do recommend it. My daughter is 12 and there is an ever-decreasing body of things for us to talk about, but she's taken up the hobby and now goes out with me when she can.

The Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge is a really good place, it's not as dark as Big Bend, but it's close and has some pretty good terrain as a backdrop to use.

I've been out to Caprock Canyons and Copper Breaks a few times as well, really nice skies in the canyon especially - but it's a good 5 hours.
