    I grew up in an area that was fairly dark. Probably somewhere between Bortle class 3 and 4 when I was young.

    When I went backpacking in the Rockies, it was like nothing I had ever seen before. The night sky is vast and beautiful, and so full of lights and color. Constellations are hard to make out because there are so many dots to look at, rather than the light being too faint to make out.
