Highest SOTA in Oregon | Mt Hood Activation

On Wednesday, March 31st, I took advantage of a weather window and favorable avalanche forecast to summit and activate Mt. Hood W7O/CN-001. I had a whirlwind 2m pileup with 29 QSOs in 20 minutes. At that point my radio hand was getting pretty numb and it was time to head down.
Here’s a video of my activation.
