Already in place & ready at Bryce Canyon - caught the 2017 event in MO & planning for 2024 in AR.

“ In Sept. 2023, it was announced that all Navajo Tribal Parks will be closed from 8:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. MDT on October 14, 2023, due to Navajo cultural beliefs surrounding the event. “

Fortunately I have no cultural beliefs hindering my viewing the eclipse.

Four Corners monument may be closed but you can still park alongside the state roads that run by the monument. The monument is only a few hundred yards away from the main road so you won’t miss out on the eclipse at Four Corners.

Seeing it west of San Antonio. Should be a cloudless sky so viewing conditions should be optimal!

Our house is about 300 feet off the exact centerline. We’ll enjoy it from our backyard.

Thanks for posting, George!

The article has a link to an excellent "eclipseophile": ANNULAR SOLAR ECLIPSE – OCTOBER 14, 2023. Lots of detailed and excellent information there on where to go to have the best chance of a cloudless sky.

"October is a friendly month and much of the American part of the track offers very promising prospects of sunny skies on eclipse day."

(NOTE: I set the width of the images to 1000 which is good for computers. Sorry to those on phones and tablets.)

It's a 1,076 mile drive from North Idaho to the Four Corners area. Who is up for a road trip?

I lucked out and had a wonderful viewing location in Oregon for the 2017 eclipse. I wonder if I can luck out again.

When one of these passed over my part of the country several years ago it was on a hot summer day.
But the temperature drop during the eclipse was VERY noticeable. Most unusual.

I know this isn't what the post is about but 2017 2024 has been mentioned twice here.

Enjoying the event here in Arizona. It is about 85% blocked at its peak. My room is visibly dark. Enjoying all the crescent shadows formed by the pinhole camera effect by the leaves of trees.

In AZ, it was a very nice eclipse and a group of sunspots visible called AR3465. We had perfectly clear cobalt blue skies and 63 degrees at the time of event.

I’ll post some pics after I process the data.

Don’t look at it, or you’ll go blind ...

... and fall into a ring of burning fire...

Johnny Cash hasn’t been seen since the last eclipse.
