Very nice SOTA activation. I have activated Kľak for the first time. Quite good weather. Only very short activation because of too windy and cold on the top of Kľak. More photos inside

SOTA OM/ZA-013 Veľký Kriváň during winter

Firstly I planned to achieve OM/ZA-013 and OM/ZA-015, too. Too much fog, cold and crazy wind. After successful OM/ZA-013 activation a I tried to get OM/ZA-015. About 30 minutes before achieving Malý Kriváň - OM/ZA-015 I had to stop and go back. I could see only 3 meters ahead of me and the wind could get me down. It was too dangerous to finish. Sometimes you have to know when you should give it up. This unfinished activation was the craziest I have ever tried. I took only  some photos when there was not too much fog and clouds.

SOTA Kriváň OM/PO-006

Firstly cold and misty, later sun and quite warm (during walking). Very nice SOTA activation with my friends. It was saturday and there were a lot of people trying to climb up the Kriváň. Quite difficult but very nice. Cumulative elevation gain more than 1100 m. More photos inside:

SOTA OM/ZA-066 & OK/ZL-039 alias Javorníky

Very nice and productive SOTA day with my friend Igor OM3CUG. We achieved Veľký Javorník OM/ZA-066 first and then Malý Javorník OK/ZL-039. Not too sunny, fresh temperature, a lot of clouds and quite windy - all perfect conditions for hiking. After SOTA activation we visited Rádioklub Manín during contest Poľný deň. Many thanks to OM6MW - Mojo for goulash. We were hungry :) Some photos inside:

SOTA OM/ZA-032 Minčol

I finished my next sota activation on 26th of February 2017. This was the first day of my ski holidays. Firstly I was skiing for 2 hours and after I make the activation. The weather was not good. It was too windy and temperature about -3°C. I had to find the lee of the peak. Anyway, I finished with 6 QSOs - the first one with Bohuš SP9MKM. First 3 photos are from SOTA, others from ski holidays.

SOTA OM/ZA-013 Veľký Kriváň

Perfect SOTA on 30. 12. 2016 with really nice weather and panoramic views. Many thanks to all stations for QSOs. What I really recomment during winter hiking is to use warm clothing. trekking poles and traction aids. One more thing is to use heating pads. More photos inside.


Only Hiking - Popradské pleso

Hike to Popradské pleso on 29th December 2016. Nice weather and temperature -12°C. But check that beauty. Just one imperfection - no SOTA possibility during that time. More photos inside. More photos inside.
