This was from a "green" zone, with a limiting magnitude of around 6. Garradd is currently just north of the main arrow that is the constellation Sagitta. Sagitta is between Delphinus and Cygnus.
Garradd is relatively condensed, but still pretty dim. "Easy" in my 8-inch SCT, and apparent in my 70mm finder scope. But not very comet-like. The tail was not well-defined. Larger and brighter than M71, which is also in Sagitta. But that still means it's a mag 7+ object.
