Summit: W7W-KG-122
Submitted by K7DDC on
I took advantage of the great weather to take a stroll up Squak mountain with a friend and my son. The activation zone is a nice, wide, clear gravel area. This was my first activation on HF and with a new radio. Needless to say I was a little…
Summit: W7I/SR-138

This is becoming a popular summit and may be one of the most accessable summits in the Boise area. This is about an hour drive from Boise however. The parking is always good as they plow the side road next to Little Camas Reservoir.…

Good parking along the road in a pullout (during winter). Note for winter ascents, stay left of the track at the bottom so you keep high. Do not go right into the quarry as you will need to climb out. We had to snowshoe up mud!…
Summit: W7O/CE-202

Planned on a camping trip for a few weeks to the area so I'd scouted out the summits on the map and noted routes in. Our orignal plan was to camp at and activate…
Summit: W7O/NC-034

In looking at peaks near my QTH that had not been activated yet, I noticed Long Mountain (W7O/NC-034). There were no notes on the peak’s page warning of issues and from examing the maps, it appeared that it may be a fairly routine exercise to…

Summit: W7W/WE-027

I was in Spokane with my wife, who was presenting some research at a conference (I'm retired, she's the "breadwinner" now) and had some time to kill. I brought my KX2 along, with a QRPGuys 40m-10m UnUnTenna. This is a fairly simple antenna,…
Summit: W7O/NC-021

An easily accessed summit, that's easily access from the Nestucca River byway. A bunch of different roads will lead you into the area from nearly any direction. Probably the easiest is up Fan Creek Road from the Nestucca River. It is near enough to…
Summit: W7O/NC-096

This summit is an easy driveup, though low clearance vehicles will have trouble with the last half mile or so. Even better, park at the bottom of the steep hill climbs and hike in or pick up the unused motorcycle trail (starting near 45.3353, -123.…
