Dark Site Info

Hey all....

Quick question to our friends over the pond. Does anyone know of any good dark sky sites in the Charleston area?

May have to spend 8 weeks over there next may on a course and will be looking to get some sky time. Will be wide field stuff as no way can I take over any other gear

Cheers

No direct experience, there is a club at Summerville about 40Km up I26. Sure I read of another a bit further up I26 but cannot find it now.

There is Francis Marion National Pk NE and 2 lakes sort of NNE from Charleston any of those I would expect to be dark - the lakes probaly have parking areas that you could use.

Enjoy the weather over there, it can be "odd" as in 100% humidity is normal and storms that have you running for cover/safety.

I was in Atlanta, Georgia for 3 months and weather was best described as weird, very weird.

Weird weather sounds good too. Always wanted to do a bit of storm chasing. Will check out those places you mentioned...may be good
