Thank you for stepping up and contributing to a SOTA presentation.? You did SO well!? Carol spoke on important details to hiking in NM from gaiters to gloves to bothy bags to snowshoes, as well as a few details on serious business equipment.? John presented on, you can do this while traveling almost anywhere in the world.? He blew me away with slides and story from, wow, Tasmania.? And George, the photographer, opened the door for people to a dozen peaks not that far from ABQ that anyone might do as there is drive-up access.? We had fifty minutes allotted, we had four presenters, I urged each to try for ten minutes while knowing that it always runs long, 4 x 12 minutes is forty-eight… George’s last slide came on the screen at exactly 10:50.? Whew!

?

The presentation slides will be on the DCHF website for people to reference in a few weeks.

Loved Herb’s presentation on Navajo Code Talkers, of whom his dad was one.? Herb is N7HG, and the only extra class from Navajo country… and a SOTA activator.? If you want to activate on the Navajo Reservation, contact him, information on QRZ.
