Mike’s Sky Ranch in Baja Mexico I think might be number 1.
It’s in the middle of nowhere along the Baja 500 course, at about 3,700 ft above sea level.
The whole place is lit by generators, and when they are turned off for the night, it is pitch black.
The transition from bright lights and noise, to dead silence as the Milky Way becomes visible from the mountain top, is a sight I will never forget.
Other contenders would be looking down into Seventh Heaven from the top of Whistler mountain in Vancouver, or the view from the top of the north face of Alyeska outside Anchorage.
