01/26/2003 | WA9TKK Operated on the rocks above the Windy Vista Overlook on the Mt. Lemmon Highway overlooking Tucson, AZ at about 7000 feet elevation after a short 10 min. hike above the road. Operated alongside, but entirely separate from, Pete KD7OIW. We had hoped to hike to the north side of Mt. Lemmon at 9150 feet elevation with a view towards Phoenix but the upper road was covered with ice. After deciding not to invest in crampons and ice axes, we opted to operate on the south side of the mountain the next day (Sunday). Only contacts we made were with Tucson stations, but it was fun anyways with beautiful sunny weather with temp about 50 at this elev. -- WA9TKK
