"Another day trip from Wodonga. Drove to Porepunkah and up onto the Mount Buffalo Plateau. The road to The Horn was closed and I did not feel like making the long walk. I parked below The Cathedral and climbed up to the The Hump. I set up the radio gear to activate VK3/VE-019, making 16 contacts. I packed up and returned to the car. I then drove around to the access route to Mount Jack and drove to the high point beside the summit and stopped to walk to the high point. I drove on to reach Peak 1205m, known in SOTA as VK3/VE-090 Mount Jack Range. I set up the radio gear and made 20 contacts. I packed up and retraced my entry route to exit and then headed back to Wodonga." — peterfreeman • Sep 13, 2018
