Argentine Peak (W0C/SR-019 ( https://www.sotadata.org.uk/en/summit/W0C/SR-019
) ) is a high 13er (13,738 ft) in the Sawatch Range. I had my eye on this summit for a Summits On The Air (SOTA) ( https://www.sota.org.uk/ )
activation for quite some time now. This summit is a short distance from Argentine Pass, which is the fourth-highest road in Colorado at 13,207 feet.
A non-radio goal I have is to drive the Jeep up the twenty highest roads in Colorado, so Argentine Pass is on that list. Not only that, Argentine Peak
sits on the Continental Divide, separating the Arapaho National Forest and
the White River National Forest, so it can also be activated for Parks On The Air (POTA). ( https://parksontheair.com/ )
