This is my first attempt at the Milky Way - I was quite pleased with the results! The key is to focus during daylight hours and lock your focusing ring on infinity!

Picketpost Mountain is located just outside of Superior, AZ (about 50 miles East of Phoenix) and is a favorite hiking destination for those who also like a moderate climb. The mountain has an elevation gain of about 1925 feet from trailhead to summit and is capped off by a mailbox to log your ascent and a park bench to rest your butt as you take in the 360 degree views.
