Oak Ridge Observatory

In addition to operating the Foothill Observatory, the P.A.S. has its own private observatory in the nearby Santa Cruz Mountains. This location has room for members to set up their own telescopes and there is AC power available. Buildings at the site house the society's 12" and 16" telescopes; the 12" telescope is available for member use (after being checked out on it). The 16" telescope is not currently available pending repairs to the dome.

The Oak Ridge site is available only to current PAS members that have a signed "Oak Ridge Disclaimer" on file.
