Eclipse 08.21.17

Check out this interactive map, if you haven't already. Click on a location for duration of totality (and if you're not in the path of totality you're wasting your time), etc., at that location.

Colin--60 miles West of Cheyenne is out of the path. Maybe you meant Casper? In any case, like I said, any pavement in the PoT is gonna be swarming with folks. Though there's plenty of Wyoming along US 26 to wander off of and into desolation.

Rooms at the Super 8 in Idaho Falls (for example) are currently $735 a night with a 3-night minimum stay, my sources tell me. We'll be in Thermopolis WY. Where's everyone else going?
Ludwig--1974 Westfalia, 2.0L (GD035193), Solex 34PDSIT-2/3 carburetors.
Gertie--1971 Squareback, 1600cc with Bosch D-Jetronic fuel injection from a '72 (E brain).

Here is what it will look like from space . . . :cyclopsani:
