Moonrise Azimuth will be at 76.6˚ from north, but I'm not sure if that's true north or magnetic north. A friend of mine who is a programer at EROS made up a .kml file showing the line of sight from the South Shore Tufas across the lake using both true and magnetic north to plot the angle. It's viewable in Google Earth, and I'd be happy to share it with anyone interested.
