Plowed, but watch out for excessively speeding snowmobiles!

I climbed Stillwater today. The friends of Stillwater did an excellent job

I don't think I have seen a tower get the care like this one did. I hope no one abuses it. Someone put a lot of workmanship in that map table in the cab. There was a lot of detail on the outer rim of the map. It will take me awhile to absorb it. I noticed a flagged Rock Pond Mountain on the rim. I was wondering if that was Mount Electra's former name. There was also an alidade. The cab had a neat storage area in the roof, a swinging door at the stairs opening, a quad chair with cup holders to sit in, there were glass windows that could be opened and there was an American Flag waving in the wind. I was most impressed. A communication antennae was installed on it too. I would like to see it during the fall
