@chad,
I’ve wanted to shoot this mountain VHF repeater during winter for awhile, and finally went up the other weekend. Avalanche conditions were high but the lines I chose for the approach were pretty good for the most part.
I camped on the plateau overnight and was given such a show of sunset and sunrise colours, not to mention the stars!
Which one is your favourite?

The series is really good but if I had to pick one it would be the dusk one.
Being a #hamradio geek I was intrigued by that being a VHF repeater. I've never seen something like that before. I believe the shelter is made in Canada. As far as I could determine they are generally for commercial use.
Based on your profile I'm guessing somewhere in BC?

@chad,
@HikerGeek Thank you!
Yes, this is in BC, and I’ve seen a few of them out on mountain tops moderately close to cities. I’m not sure how far out they extend the range.

Generally speaking VHF is line of sight.
