Cypress Mountain North Peak (1485) was successfully activated September 18. Four of us climbed to the summit just under 1500’. We had 12 vhf 2M contacts including one Summit-to-Summit with Mt Thompson about 98 miles away. The approach from Eagle Harbor is about 3 miles going via Cypress Lake. At the lake continue on the old road on the south side until it turns into a use trail. About 300’ below the summit bushwhack up some rocky outcrops to a clear area and setup. You can see to the east south west as you move around. We used a yagi antenna and a 5 watt HT.  https://www.islandexpresscharters.com/fares By Jay - KI7LDQ
