Alex & Yuki,

Sounds like fun.  Even up there you'd be better off with a half-wave 
horizontal, however, there are no trees what-so-ever.  So take some sort 
of mast.

Not sure if I can make the net or not, as I have a museum event, so 
somebody need to grab NCS duties and run with it.

Regards,
Al
