This is over-kill, but im talking about something like this.

Atleast i dont see it on a regular basis.
I just got back from Page yesterday. I rented a car but ran into an 86'er from Seattle.. Anyway, I took this shot at the campground I stayed at on lake Powell. I agree with B.Rice85 on Canyon lake or at least that far out. Flagstaff should do as well..

i believe there are a few sky gazing clubs.. I'd be willing to go on a road trip here.. http://www.maricopa.gov/parks/santan/

or here http://azstateparks.com/Parks/LODU/


EDIT.... I figured what the heck, and booked an overnight at lost dutchmans.. I'll let you know how good it is...
