    Do you keep an eye on humidity levels out there? My understanding is Colorado typically has pretty low levels. I know that is a factor in dew fall.

    Yes bacpacker. Humidity is key and CO is a desert. But there are occasional misty morns since is stream bed is on the other side of my back yard fence. Currently contemplating burying the bucket the dew collector is in to create a change in temperature for the container. In the winter we usually get moisture it is the summer that I am focusing on for this to be declared a method of water collection.

    This website is what I use for the calculations after an evening of attempted collections.
