POTA US-9799 Stone Mountain (GA) Park [KQ4TAY]

Conveniently located at 1000 Robert E. Lee Blvd, just a stone’s throw from Atlanta, this park is packed with fun activities. Before you head out, be sure to check the weather and see if the sky lift is up and running. Lace up your hiking boots and conquer the trails that lead to the top of the iconic Stone Mountain! When the lift is operational, you can take a ride for a breathtaking view. Get ready for a fantastic day outdoors!

Enjoy an unforgettable overnight stay in one of the lakeside yurts! Each yurt comes with a private back porch, perfect for setting up your radio equipment for POTA activation. It’s a great way to connect with nature and share your passion!

Tune in for some late-night fun with the Alford Memorial Radio Club’s 2 meter radio repeater perched atop the majestic Stone Mountain! I had a blast joining the “Turnip Truck Net” while cozying up by the fire—what a perfect combo of good company and great vibes! Don’t miss out on the excitement; it’s a rad way to connect and unwind!

There’s nothing like the stunning mountain weather to set the stage for a great activation from a cozy yurt’s back porch! With my trusty Xeigu G90 and Chameleon EFHW antenna, I snagged 52 contacts in just 45 minutes—what a thrill! It was an epic QSO session that reminded me why I enjoy this hobby so much.
