The summit ridge is narrow, rather short and without any trees. I ended up placing my 28' Jackite pole midway along the ridge so that I would have room to secure the ends of my 88' doublet antenna. It was breezy, 15-20 mph gusting to 25 mph. My twinlead feedline is being bowed eastward from the prevailing west wind. The ridge was steeply sloped on each side and my antenna wire was running northwest-southeast.
