This drive on was the last activation during my weekend trip to Trough Creek State Park in Huntingdon County. Harbor Mountain is a scenic launching spot for hang-gliders. The drive up was along gravel forest roads in Buchanan State Park. I parked just off the side of the short walkway to the overlook point. The cliffside falls away dramatically into a stunning view of a valley. The sky was misty, adding a bit of mystery to the surroundings.


Fall propagation was in full swing during this activation. I worked a bunch of DX on the high bands: F4WBN, G3VXJ, and VE6AGR (S2S on VE6/RA-014) on 17; IZ8FAV, EA7GV, and S52AU on 12m; F4WBN, EA1AER, OK2VWB, M0TTQ, SQ0JYK, and DJ5AV on 10m. I also managed to work Mark KD7DTS from the youtube SOTA+ channel on 17m.
