I was activating The Rimwall (VE6/JF-027) in Alberta, Canada, two days ago on June 26, and was very happy to be chased by Ray, VY1RF in Whitehorse. I was operating 28 watts, SSB on 20m over a distance of about 1600 km.
On returning home to Calgary I checked the SOTA records for Yukon, and found that as yet there are no recorded activations or chases. So I am hoping that this might be the start of many contacts.
When the Yukon SOTA association was implemented, I did look at travel, but from Calgary Alberta it is a 2,250km drive, or $750 airfare one-way to Whitehorse. So not a week-end trip to pick up a couple of peaks! I will keep it on my list of possibles though.
Looking forward to more contacts,
