Re: Double SOTA Goat Day April 3rd

Carey, ? Yeah, I’m seeing the same weather forecasts you are and agree, next week would be better.? But Shane is only in town for a couple days (he moved to Virginia last year), and we really want to cross the finish line together. ? And I’m the problem when it comes to peak selection.? I’ve only been doing Uniques so I could get the “All Uniques” endorsement on my SOTA Goat trophy… which means our peak selection is limited.? Aware of The Pulverizer’s reputation for serious deadfall, Black Mtn, FR-031, was our first choice, but when I did some scouting recently I discovered access to the trailhead this early in the season would probably require the use of a farmer’s tractor.? So, I think we’ll find a way to make The Pulverizer work.? If not, Friday will be our plan B, and you’ll see a new set of Alerts.? Maybe the Pulverizer experience will make for a good story… we’ll let you know. ? Thanks, as always, for your feedback from experience, ? Ray / KD8EQA ?

Subject: Re: [w0c-sota] Double SOTA Goat Day April 3rd? Based on what I see on the point forecast, and my experience a few times on the Pulverizer, I'd say wait until next week when the good weather returns. SOTA and getting MG are supposed to be fun. Congratulations on all your hard work! On 04/01/2025 2:08 PM MDT Brad WA6MM via groups.io <wa6mm@...> wrote: I'll try to work you and Shane on your joint Mt Goat summit!? It appears the weather will be a bit tough that day ... but hey, this is Colorado ;-).? Good luck to you guys!!
