| A quaint mountain town in the DuPont Forest about an hour from our home, we think this will be the ideal spot to view the eclipse. |
 |
| A lot of open viewpoints. |
 |
| I love exploring new areas and finding places off the beaten path. |
 |
| The town has a gas station and a restaurant and some galleries and shops, all of which will be closed the day of the eclipse so the employees can join in the event. |
 |
| Turk's Cap |
 |
| It was a beautiful drive with fields of wildflowers everywhere. This was the biggest field of Ironweed I have ever seen. |
 |
| Lots of camps and cottages along the way. |
 |
| A short hike along a trail brings us to Fawn Lake, one of five mountain lakes in the Dupont Forest. |
 |
| Lots of space and vantage points and off the beaten trail, we decided this would be "the place" until we found . . . Big Rock This will take a little more effort and time to hike to, but I think at 2700 feet elevation, this will be the viewing spot we searched for! |
