Pluto not detectable in a 15-inch scope?
#3
The user might also try opening the scope finder chart & using a shorter eyepiece than the 32 mm. That should improve the contrast & make Pluto easier to spot. Perhaps try a Barlow lens with the 32 mm. That's an excellent eyepiece.

As you mentioned, switching to a darker location would give the best results unless the scope isn't portable. The Denver light dome must be a real problem.
