Those in Vancouver BC area know this mountain well.There is lots of information on the internet on how to get there and what services are available so I will not post it here.It is only about an hour leisurely ride on a good paved road to the main parking lots at Mt Seymour park.The view is Fantastic of Vancouver and its suburbs as well as Vancouver Island,Gulf Islands and northern coast of Washington state including Mt Baker in the distance.So for a radio operation ,the location is great in all directions except the north,which is blocked by the peak.The parking lot area is at approx 1200m and there are lots of small pull outs on the way up the parkway with great views to the south as well.I operated portable from here many years ago when I lived in the Vancouver area with great results.Try it out when you can for fun.If you are inclined there are good hiking trails on up to the top of the mountain as well as a chairlift .Best dx and 73s
