Ursa Major (the big dipper) is the third largest constellation and easy to pick out most nights during every season in Ridgway. Orion is on the celestial equator, prominent, identifiable, and mostly visible from January to March. Sagittarius and Scorpius constellations straddle the brightest part of the Milky Way over the southern horizon just above Ridgway's iconic Sneffels Range in the summer sky. Pegasus, located in the north sky, is recognized as the seventh constellation. And, there are many more to see.
