We got drenched last night! Antennas fell down in the wind and it was too loud to sleep much. ?We just had breakfast and are going to play on the radios from our tents for a bit. I have one CW contact on 20 so far. ?I don't think we'll be staying another night, too wet up here this weekend. ?

Wow, I am so jealous. But here I am without my RV and my foot in a cast. Stay dry and warm and have as much fun as possible. And don't forget to take pictures for the FBPC (Frozen Butt Picture Contest).

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:
