You have to have stamina to do what you just did. Great activation!

Looks like you god off to a great start with that first activation. Looking forward to the next instalment. Hoping you'll share some kit tips too. I recently did a three day solo hike with a 12kg pack, which is the lightest I've managed when carrying a tent plus radio gear (kx2, antenna etc). 73, Fraser MM0EFI

Wow, those views are amazing! Really appreciate the onscreen CW decode too -my morse isn't up to scratch (yet) :)

Freakin' sweet.

I have done some of the fourteeners, I have looked that trail over a few times, great to see it on camera.

[@kenanshobbies9970]

Adam: Truly awesome video! I noticed you were using your phone to log. Were you using and app like 73 Ham Log or some other app? Been looking to replace 73 Ham Log myself as it can no longer be updated.

[@K6ARK]

I use OutD log for logging. Great app for SOTA.

[@KI4ASK]

Thanks for sharing. 73

[@pakeck1]

Thanks for taking us along. Never climbed a mountain, but feel like I have now. 73

[@mainetomass99]

Killer hike. Any VHF contacts? I’d be shocked if so. Looks like you are definitely in BFE.

[@K6ARK]

Those peaks are so high you can actually do well on VHF. The Sierra slopes away to the West and it's common to reach out to Fresno and I-5 in the central valley. I worked 2m the next day for a number of contacts!

[@mainetomass99]

@@K6ARK Nice! From a really quick satellite/topo glance it appeared you may have been in a pocket surrounded by those peaks. Glad they opened up for some line of sight options. Looking forward to the rest of the vids from the trip.

[@tannerwilcox8942]

Please consider doing a pack dump video, or at least letting me know in a reply how you were able to keep your pack at 20 pounds for 4 days

[@agplay2290]

How the heck did you park there, can you car 🦀 walk! Ha

[@K6ARK]

I was wondering if anyone would notice 😆 I'm pretty good at parallel parking.

[@agplay2290]

@@K6ARK oh yes, it is quite exceptional.

[@K6ARK]

@@agplay2290 AND, it took only 2 takes... One false start, then straight in with one backup and one tiny pull forward. 🤘😁

[@agplay2290]

@@K6ARK heck yeah. Oh I have a quick question. I was able to get a TX-500 just before everything went bonkers with the Russia debacle. Have tried it, but was not able to receive anything.

[@K6ARK]

@@agplay2290 right on! Antenna? Band? Time of day?

Great video Adam and sure looked like a great trip. Looking forward to the next parts. de KN4OK
