Why Colorado's Mountain West, including Pikes Peak, Is a Hot Spot for Eclipse 2045 - Atlas Obscura
The Mountain West helped put American science on the map during the 1878 total solar eclipse, and it's the place to be for the next big American eclipse.
Eclipse chasers hope for clear skies, so here’s hoping for a good forecast for Monday, April 8. But if you are the kind of person who likes to plan way ahead, consider coming to the Mountain West in 21 years and four months. Colorado is known for more than 300 days of sunshine, and the August 2045 total eclipse crosses most of the state.

If I'm still alive in 21 years & still have all my faculties to properly enjoy a full eclipse, I'll count my lucky stars. lol
There a little more in the story but yeah. I'm adding this to my calendar. In 20 years, we'll be like, "hey, remember lemmy? That was great..."
