Glass Buttes in central Oregon is a premier rockhounding location. The summit of Glass Butte is accessed off of Highway 20 up a well-maintained gravel road (GPS track). There are some small water bars on the road, a passenger vehicle could make it up no problem with careful driving.
Un-coordinated, W7MTB and N7OLE met me up at the summit. I had already set up HF, so we did some SSB and passed the mic around. I don't think there was too much issue from the RF stations up there. We did not try 2m.
Along the road there are a few rockhounding / campsites. Also cows.
Chris and Randi headed back home on their motorcycles. I continued on to Little Glass Butte.
