Ham Radio
Mt Shasta Ice Axe and Crampon Training Clinic
Crew 27 uses ham radio to communicate between cars while driving on outings and between groups of crew members on hikes and other outings. Both advisors and youth are strongly encouraged to get their ham radio license. Ham radio is also an important part of our emergency plans.
