Wow...plenty of fun activity from FN21hb (Camelback Mtn).

About 50 total calls logged, a few on just one or two bands.
Huge 23cm activity, couldn't break in on the numerous Qs
going on there!

Easy VUCC on 10G: FM08/18/19/20/29, missed FN12. longest
was a very easy, loud QSO with Bill, W3IY in FM08us, about 350km
AA2UK, W3IY (twice--FM19/FM08) had huge signals on all bands.
WA3DRC, WA3NUF, K1DS all nice runs thru all their bands. K1DS
moved a bit so we could find a path for 6/10G!  Cool!
N2JMH activated FN12; we worked through 3.4G with a poor path.
Many otherscalled in on 144, 432, or 1296, including a number of Packrats.
My 5760 station still needs improvement.  Working on 903/1296
antennas.
Poor path to FM19av eliminated KB8VAO, W3HMS.
Heard K2UOP (FM09), W4SW (FM19), but ran out of time.

Total Qs about 90-100, with about 2/3 on 1296 or above.

The weather was great, the activity was great, the 
camaraderie was great!

No joy on 24G, yet except for short distance Qs.
