Amazing night of stargazing at Goosenecks State Park last night. Goosenecks is an International Dark Sky Park. Goosenecks’ Bortle 1 sky did not disappoint.

We saw Saturn, galaxies, and globular clusters. And lots of Milky Way!

Thank you to Bears Ears Partnership, Utah State Parks, and the BLM for organizing this event!
