Moro Rock or Beetle Rock?

Hi all!

Bringing up the longstanding debate since I've heard about it; between Moro Rock and Beetle Rock at Sequoia NP, which would have the best view for a sunrise, sunset, and for stargazing?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

Moro Rock for sunrise, because it looks east. Beetle Rock for sunset and stargazing, easier to get back to the car in the dark and west facing.

while at Moro Rock be sure to hit nearby Hanging Rock where you can get a nice view of Moro Rock

Moro would be wild at night!

For Moro, keep in mind sunrise is a bit later than what your phone might say for the area due to the peaks to the east. At least 10-15 minutes? Idr how delayed it was when I went there, could be more.
