Hike basics

After doing Box Springs Mountain (W6/CT-180), I wanted to do another Complete, so I meandered through the neighborhoods of Jurupa Valley and drove to the end of Lakeshore Drive.

This is a short hike to a trashy summit with a decent view on a clear day. I picked up a little trash but it is pretty much a lost cause. Easy to set up a HF station among the graffiti stained granite boulders.

Here is my track down

I had fun on the radio working some Winterfest folks: Lorene W6LOR & Mike K6STR up on Mt. Ord, David N6AN on his Flint Peak and Mark KD7DTS on Pacifico Mountain.

The Station with San Gorgonio and even Box Springs Mountain in the background.

Here are my SOTA summit ratings

Here are some cool links to Summits on the Air (SOTA)

I'm a graphic artist in the movie business. When I was a kid I got interested in astronomy. When it would get too cloudy to observe the heavens, my buddy and I would sit at the VFO of his Hallicrafters S 38c like safe crackers trying to coax faraway signals out of that humble radio. My love of astronomy and radio survive to this day fifty+ years later.
