Re: The Great Freeze Your Butt Off Adventure

 

Howdy Folks,
It's looking pretty overcast out there. :)? If you look just past the campsite on that map you can see the summit of Black Mountain, nice views from up there.? The elevation gain from parking lot to camp looks to be about 400' over 1.7 miles.? A friend from SCCARA is planning on coming out tomorrow if it's not too rainy, I think.? Last time I was up there I had 5 bars on my cell phone, there's an antenna tower in between camp and the Black Mountain summit.? Also, there's a payphone up there, (650) 948-9634.? Feel free to wake Dave with a prank call.

Hi All,

This Saturday from 0600 to 1400 is the FYBO QRP contest. You get multiple points for how cold it is. Nick and I will be at Monte Bello Open Space campground. The parking lot and trail access it located on Page Mill Road near Skyline. We plan to be there from Friday 1400 until Sunday 1000 rain or shine. So come one come all to cheer us on. We will be operating on CW ( 7.040 & 14.060) SSB (7.185, 7.285 14.285, 14.342.5). We will try and monitor the K6NFI repeater. Here is a Google map of the trail which is about 1.7 miles up hill to the campsite that Nick put together:



Nick can you a add a few notes and your call sign.
