Here is the first stargazing location tip for you all! This spot is great for a HU student looking to get away or stargaze with some friends. As a general rule of thumb for any stargazers, never trespass on someone's property. The stars are not worth going to jail for.
Now, this location can be easily walked to in about 7 minutes from the dorms on campus. To get there, walk around the lake until you reach the entrance of the campus that is on the backside of Lake Snotip. Walk out past the sign as though you were heading to the YMCA or Parkview Hospital. Turn right onto Gragg street and keep going forward. On your left will be a field with a gate for an entrance. This is the Huntington University Cross Country field. Being a student at HU means you are ok to be here. This location is not perfect, as the campus and hospital will result in a little light pollution, but it is the best location short of driving somewhere. Give it a shot on the next clear night in Huntington, and give me some feedback.
More locations to come soon! Stay posted! I hope you enjoy this spot!
