On the last day of the year, it seemed like a good idea to get in one more
SOTA ( http://www.sota.org.uk/ ) activation. It turns out that I had not been
up Mt Herman (W0C/FR-063 (
http://www.sotawatch.org/summits.php?summit=W0C/FR-063 ) ) all year, even
though it's close by. See this page (
http://www.everytrail.com/guide/mt-herman ) for the trail description. Joyce
KØJJW and I decided to hike up in the morning, reaching the summit around 11
AM local time.Â* This was my third SOTA activation of Mt Herman, but I've
operated from there many more times in various VHF contests (back before SOTA
was a thing in Colorado).
