Hi PSRG,

Thanks again for the contacts today!

Always great to hear you when I’m out there.

Are you familiar with Washington Trails Association (WTA)?

They recently published an article on ham radio and SOTA.

I’ve attached a few photos from our joint Activation of Granite Mountain today; Mark [K7MAS], and me.
