For the city dwellers out there, this was captured from our back porch last night.

Cool! I thought it wasn't going to be visible until August.

It will be closest to earth onthe 23rd. Look for it below the big dipper, about half way towards the horizon.

I have hills and trees in the way.

We are currently camping in the mountains of Idaho and the comet is very visible!

Awesome! Where about?

I think we are heading for the edge of the wilderness this weekend, about 10000 feet. Should be good viewing.

My wife has a late model I-phone she used with 10 second exposure or so to get that photo.

We were near Lake Cleveland in the Sawtooth National Forest. Beautiful area! The comet was very visible!
