More Information

A thunderstorm and smoke stopped us last year, but we are planning to be back this year for our annual star party for three nights at Plumas Eureka State Park. We observe in the parking lot of the old Johnsonville Ski Bowl at Plumas Peak (Google Maps). The nights of July 24th and 25th will be club observing nights, and the public will be invited to join us on the night of the 26th.

Three lodging options are available:

  1. Share one of our four free campsites in the park campground, where restrooms and showers are available
  2. Camp at the observing site, and you provide your own facilities (no water, restrooms, or showers are available there)
  3. Find your own lodging in nearby Graeagle; one option is the River Pines Resort

If you plan to attend, please contact Rod Brown via the club contact page and let him know your lodging option. Paul and Linda Bacon will be parking their trailer at the observing site (option 2) and we are looking for some more folks to camp there with them to help mind the site, so especially let us know if you can join them.
