I am planning on backpacking next week in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Along the hike, I will be activating 6x 10 point summits as follows:
28 April
W4C/WM-001 Clingmans Dome / Kuwohi
W4T/SU-006 Mount Kephart
29 April
W4T/SU-007 Laurel Top
W4T/SU-004 Mount Chapman
30 April
W4T/SU-002 Mount Guyot
1 May
W4T/SU-012 Cammerer Ridge
During this trip, I will have limited cell service and will only be able to utilize what I bring in the pack with me. As a result, I will be predominantly attempting activations on 15m and 17m due to wire length. A couple of the activations may be early in the morning, so I will also have the 40m whip extension for the KH-1.
The jury is out on whether or not I will bring a dual band HT, as weight is a chief concern.
Keep an eye out for me, as activations may be brief if weather turns. If WX cooperates, I will linger awhile at each summit. This time of year is very unpredictable in terms of storms/rain. I know with the help of this community it will be a great and successful trip.
