I absolutely do not use a green screen for my Summits on the Air activations.

Looking for the right Summits On The Air day pack? I go over the packs I’ve used as well as my most recent purchase. In this video I also activate Two Rock Mountain W7A/YV-011 in the Prescott National Forest with my buddy Brian W7JET. This hike had quite a challenging bushwhack to it.

Taking you along for another Summits on the Air activation to the top of Wilson Mountain W7A/CS-062 just north of Sedona, Arizona in the Coconino National Forest. I give you my top 5 reasons why I participate in the SOTA program. I am trying to dip my toes into Parks on the Air a little bit too, so I make this a dual activation – SOTA/POTA.

Grand Canyon National Park. Getting to the bottom – OPTIONAL. Getting to the top MANDATORY! Sandy and I received our backcountry permit for 3 days in the Grand Canyon at Hermit Creek Campground. This was an 8.5 mile hike down, with an additional 1.5 miles to the Colorado river. Over 4300’ of elevation difference from start to finish, this was a fun but challenging adventure. Since I was in the Canyon, I was curious if I could make any contacts for Parks on the Air from the bottom. So, I took along my MTR3b and everything that goes with it. Is it impossible to make contacts this far down into a canyon? Find out what my experience was.
