A blog of ham radio and hiking in general, where SOTA (Summits on the Air) activations enables N7AZ to combine the two. Saturday, October 15, 2011. Mt Lemmon, W7 / AW-001. I didn't know there could be such scenery. Driving from Tucson to the top of Mt. Lemmon takes one through 7 different climate zones, the equivalent. Of driving from Mexico to Canada. Close to the top we pulled over at a picnic area and had sandwiches, etc that my wife Donna-KB0JOK had made for us. After making several more contacts, I ...

We finally topped out and we walked around looking for the summit medallion. It wasn't until later that Jesse found it. It was where we had been told, "east of the fire tower” Except it was in a rock, not in cement. Jesse also found some kitty kat paw prints! Here kitty, kitty. We stopped at a local restaurant to fuel up and looked...

A blog of ham radio and hiking in general, where SOTA (Summits on the Air) activations enables N7AZ to combine the two. Sunday, August 21, 2011. Woody Mountain, W7 / AE-037. L-R, Fred-KT5X, Peanut, Steve-wG0AT. So Steve unloaded the goats and I took off my hiking boots and put on my tennis shoes. It was a nice hike up the rest of the mountain. On the way up there was an opening to the NE allowing us to see the summit we had activated just hours earlier. We were at the summit in no time! 73 de Jon N7AZ.
