Dark sky star party at Chuchupate.  Other astronomy clubs from Southern CA have their star parties there as well.  You may arrive any time on the Labor Day weekend, but the main night for observing is usually on Saturday.

Bring you own snacks and drinks.  Cell phone service is intermittent.  There are vault toilets, bring your own toilet paper; no running water.  Elevation is 5400 feet.

Directions:  From the Antelope Valley,  Take CA-138 (Ave D) west to Interstate 5.  Take I-5 North to the Frazier Mountain Road exit. Go west, passing Frazier Park, until you come to a 4 way stop with a flashing red light. Continue straight ahead for several more miles until you come to Lockwood Valley Road.  Turn LEFT. (There's a pizza place on the corner)  Continue for about 3 miles until you see a small sign "Chuchupate Ranger Station", turn LEFT (Frazier Mountain Rd/Forest Rte BN04) . The speed limit on this road is 20 mph. Drive through the Ranger Camp, for about 1/8 mile until you see a sign "Trail Head" and make a right turn into the parking lot.  If you arrive at the Chuchupate Campgrounds, you have gone too far!
