Re: Saturday the 20th of Oct,

The week of the 20th, there is always our fall back oak flats. Temps
are right, there are vault toilets and the distance is only 50 miles
from the meeting location, we have an intimate knowledge of the terrain,
and it's free. I'd love to have a camping trip on the 20th weekend as I
won't get another change with school until October 2013, so I really
really want to do this if it's possible.

A member mentioned that Granite Reef area was down low in respect to the surrounding area as its next to the Salt River. I don't know if ham band reception is decent at the picnic area or not its something to check out. The coming months are the best time of the year for getting out and enjoying Arizona weather. I suggest we as a group should check out different places within easy driving distance from Mesa for Ham activities. I picked Granite Reef because its close and has toilet facilities its cheaper to pay the Tonto pass than to drive to Superior or Globe. So if someone has another suggestion I'm open we may have to check out several sits before we find a location that provides everything we would like.
