In this Video My Buddy Josh KK6USX and I embark on a 40 mile round trip on Dirt bikes to activate Goat Mtn. for Summits On the Air. We encounter Dust to snow on the ride to the peak that is at 6100′ altitude. Once you get close there is a gate and then a hike of about 1.5 miles, follow along on this adventure!
