Can we talk about how much darker the sky got at Cherry Springs State Park?

Honestly, I went there last month and the difference from my suburban backyard was crazy. I could actually see the Milky Way's dust lanes with my naked eye, no camera needed. Has anyone else found a spot that made their usual setup feel totally different?

Yeah, that place is on another level. Took my old binoculars there and it felt like a whole new hobby. Makes you realize how much light we just live with normally.

Exactly, and it's not just about stars. @david821, that feeling hits with sound too. Go somewhere truly quiet and your ears feel broken for a minute. We're drowning in noise and light pollution all the time and just tune it out. Makes you wonder what else we're missing because it's been covered up by normal life.
