Northern Lights tonight/tomorrow

Caught them for the first time north of Jasper on my way home from a hunt in Northern BC. It was about 1 in the morning, with a bright moon so the old man (who had never seen them in his 67 years on the planet) pulled over and watched the show for about 15 minutes.

Best rest stop ever, pretty much amazeballs.

 
Is it true that the lights from the north pole and the lights from the south pole are a mirror image of each other.
 
Years ago I rented a little farmhouse out towards Amsterdam,just west of Bozeman.Private road,with free roam to do what ever,mostly hunt Huns.Point though was this house had a raised view of the entire Bridger range.One clear winter night I watched the Northern Lights dazzle over the mountains.I will never forget that display.The range seemed to be a giant stage set with the sky overhead some masterful act of shimmering light.One of those moments.
 
One thing I gotta see before I die.

Be aware you might already have seen them - down here most of the time it just a greenish glow along the NE horizon. If you look closely you can sometimes see it flickering around. The bright moon is really going to cut into what can be seen.
