Knife Edge Refraction at VHF

Currently I am sitting in a log cabin (with a log fire) surrounded by snow capped mountain peaks wondering how 2m propagation would be from here. Sharp mountains often allow good propagation into screened valleys by refraction over the peaks sometimes with strong signals. Unfortunately I have no ham gear (apart from Echolink) to try it. Instead I am just enjoying the views. 10cm snow forecast tomorrow here, HI.

Hello Roger, I thing we all recognize this. You are in a beautiful scenery and your thoughts wander to radio. Enjoy the beautiful mountains.
