Summit: 
W7W/SK-158

See KJ7LSM's nice writeup of this summit. I'll only add that, in March 2025, the gate to the last leg of the road is closed (see the southernmost point of the hike,below, resulting in an 800 foot, 1.7 mile walk up the remaining gravel road. There's room for one or two vehicles at the Y in the road while still providing passage if someone with access wants to pass through the gate.

South Tiger Mountain, WA | Jan 2025

Summit: 
W7W/KG-121

For my first activation in the Pacific Northwest, I chose South Tiger Mountain. It was a "suggested first summit," a short drive from home, and a relatively easy hike. It was also a 2-pointer, another first for me.

Bobs Mountain, WA | Nov 2024

Summit: 
W7W/LC-139

Just an update: the road to the trailhead has been re-gravelled since we activated in 2023.  Discovery Pass still required.

And it is possible to get closer to the summit by parking next to the electrical tower at (45.658181, -122.183540).

Peak 1465, OR | Nov. 2024

Summit: 
W7O/CC-125

1465 is a 1-point peak in the Oregon Central Coast region. The top of the summit is close to the road but due to geography and deep thorny overgrowth, remains nearly inaccessible. However, a spur road does pass through the edge of the activation zone (as confirmed by GPS altitude).

W7W/LC-096

Summit: 
W7W/LC-096

Getting there: The route is quite straighforward. As of October 2024, it is possible to drive the 1/2 mile up the brushed-in logging road from the 5800 road to where the old road grade peels off. There is parking for two vehicles at the start of the bushwhack.

Inwang-san, South Korea | Sept 2024

Summit: 
HL/SL-004

This is a stretch for a PNWSOTA summit report but, if you find yourself in Seoul with a few hours to kill, this could help you navigate.  My son and I were able to activate this summit after doing the normal tourist activities.

Round Top, OR | Sep 2024

Summit: 
W7O/NE-110

Hike: 2 miles RT Bushwhack

Elevation Gain: 500 feet

There are eight Round Tops in Oregon although two of them add another word to the name. This one is a few miles north and a bit east of John Day Oregon as the radio signal flies.

Bring a climbing helmet for this summit! Even under the trees, you're in the kill zone for falling rocks!
