Yes Paz!!! South Carolina would be a great place to watch, but if you come to Montana and see your family AND an eclipse, that's a win-win!!! Kind of a long drive from Bozeman (isn't that where your son lives?) and there's probably no place still available to stay closer, but getting up very early is an option...and, of course, you don't have to be in the Tetons - there are many lovely spots in Idaho that would probably be easier to get to. Looking forward to hearing what you decide!! And, knowing how savvy you are, I'm sure you have all the gear issues figured out by now! Feel free to share tips and techniques!
Re: If we had a 2017 Muvipix Meetup - when/where would it beHi all!! I thought this thread had fallen off the map and just checked and see new posts. OK, speaking of maps, here's the best map out there on the topic...as PAZ answered, the event is the 2017 TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE on August 21. Sorry to all who live outside the United States. This one is all USA...Oregon to South Carolina. So check the map - for any location you can click and a box will indicate the percentage of totality and the duration.

You are in the POT Buddy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You can sit in your backyard with a beverage (and, most importantly, with access to your own bathroom!!!!!!!!) and watch this eclipse. I will be fighting for a few square feet to stand on and access to a portapotty (big YUCK) to await the eclipse in the Grand Tetons. My thought had been a meetup near St. Louis based on the known locations of some muvipixers. As time went on, i thought it would be fun to have people who got to any location in the POT contribute whatever of their experience they wanted to share. Cheryl - we could certainly expect to see video of impatient foot tapping as people wait and wait for the big 2 minute experience! (Yeah, totality is very short, though the partial before and after take awile and it's an interesting experience to watch animals behave as if it is night) PAZ - I would love to see some of your preparations for this - you are so smart about your gear, it would be fun to watch your "process" Steve - certainly one of your maps showing your progress toward the destination of the meetup is "required" Buddy - maybe a shot of you in a lawnchair in your yard, with an alarm clock to awaken you at just the right moment Still 5 months to prepare if anyone is interested!!!!!!!!!!!!!
