This past week our SOTA Slacker team for the 46Climbs has been doing pretty good. Some challenges of heavy smoke and closed NF has put a damper on some of our plans for the more challenging summits but we are still having fun! We have so far achieved a total of about 13000ā of elevation gain. Tomorrow, 9/11, N0DNF, KX6I, K7III and myself (AG7GP) will all try to be on summits for the fundraiser and for SOTA activations. Not too late if you would like to support to help end suicide and the stigmas of mental illness
How about selling 46Climb shirts in either blue or burgundy @ 25 bucks plus shipping, Amy? Put me down for a burgundy large. Game worn shirts 20% off? All in memory of the best friend Sota ever had, KU6J, who could not be saved by medication.
I did not know KU6J, but have seen him mentioned and obviously was an incredible man. Iām not one of the 46climbs organizers, just joined for the loss of my niece, which led to some SOTA ops wanting to do the same so a team was formed. You can still join our team by clicking on the link and I think they still will send you a shirt . But maybe we should think about doing a team next year that at least has one day of hiking in memory of KU6J?
A few more pics from my outing today. I had a lot of fun with family and friends, especially my great nephew Oscar who lost his mom. I think I have a new SOTA hiking partner
