[Lvas] Kaibob Lodge Star Party

[David Blanchette]

Is anyone considering going?

This "early monsoon" weather pattern has me concerned.  The Kaibob 
National Forest is on top of a 9000 foot plateau/mesa, and is the 
perfect breeding area for pop-up thunderstorms during the monsoon season.

If I do go, I plan to camp (in your face, Mr. Thunderstorm!), 
probably in the DeMotte Campground, pretty much next door to the 
lodge.  According to the National Forest website, this campground 
does not take reservations.  As the star party runs 
Thursday-Saturday, I expect getting a campground on Thursday should 
not be a problem.

If you plan to go, and plan to get a cabin/room at the lodge, you 
should look into making reservations ASAP.
