Kemble’s Cascade is 2.5 degrees. You can see all the bright stars easily with 7×50′s, and from a dark sky you can see the asterism naked eye, at least I can.

Five full Moon diameters should be about 2.5 degrees. While i use 8×21 often, the math says i should see perhaps mag 8.5, not the dimmer 10th magnitude stars in Kemble’s Cascade.
