A lot of people are going to be converging along the eclipse route. Casper, WY is going to be especially crowded because the Astronomical League is holding their convention at the same time.

Towns with the best probability for sunny weather will be quite crowded. Check out one of the links I had in the OP about weather history along the totality path.

I've still not decided what to do. If I had the money, I'd go to central Oregon, around the Madras area.
