Check out Elfin Lakes - the trail head is not far from the Squamish city limits and the views at the top are amazing. Even better, and not just limited to Elfin Lakes (but I often used to time my hikes up there just for this) is that the Perseid Meteor Shower peaks on August 12th so any time out of the light pollution, and no clouds, could give you quite the experience.
