I activated Toxaway Mtn today (9Jan2019). I had originally intended to activate two summits today but that did not pan out because of the weather. I had brought the K1 once again. The temperature was about 27F at the summit and the wind was blowing at a steady 30 mph+. I only worked 2 bands because of the adverse weather conditions. The video below shows how hard the wind had been blowing.
K1 and EFHW MTR
I hunkered down in a low spot to get a wind break. You can see the antenna farm at the summit. I used one of the trees to support my mast.
Here I am leaving the summit with the antenna farm in the background
Ran into W1PTS and KS4FX at the summit - they activated in SSB
