Getting out of the heat and heading down to western NC (south of Asheville) to activate several NPOTA/SOTA sites. Hopefully the 6000 feet elevation will cool things off a bit.
Schedule will be fluid as the trip down is pretty far from DC (8 hrs). No whining on accuracy of my schedule. Once I enter the backcountry all bets are off on timing. See my note at the end of this post about tracking me like a bear looking for a beehive.

*Note: when the map loads, click on my name on the left side to view my current tracks.
Will self spot via DXSummit.fi, SOTAWatch and NPOTA/SOTA FB group pages.
From my research it looks like cell reception will be spotty at best.
Is anyone willing to give me their email or cell # that I send spots to via my Delorme (it can send either)?
