Cleaning Up
Beautiful conditions on the summit today allowed the summit staff to tackle some outdoor projects. Roger, Pete (IT Manager from the valley), Kaitlyn, Alex, and I all headed outside to fix, fabricate, and clean up the deck and tower. Pete and Roger worked hard on the top of the tower installing radio antennas. This project took quite a while but, the light winds made it easy to do their installations. On the deck, Kaitlyn, Alex, and I worked on pulling old cable and moving paving tiles into one location. It was “grunt” work that needed to be done to better organize equipment that had been sitting there after a long winter.
