Condition: F5
Location: Home, Spearfish: 44.49, -103.87
Not the greatest conditions tonight, but I was excited to try the CG-4 mount out. There was a very thin haze of clouds overhead, so I picked three brighter carbon stars that were on my list. I began viewing before the sun was fully down, and was able to sneak these three observations in before thicker clouds came rolling in from the NW.
The mount performed very well.

It was still pretty light outside as I was navigating to this one, but it was still dark enought to be seen. Golden orange in color.

Color hard to determine, maybe a pale yellow.
