Heck, Stuart, it gets cold enough in June at 7,000' ASL!
We get winds that uproot tents sometimes.
And the campground may be closed after Labor Day, since
it's on USFS property.

I think I have read that in its earliest days, it was a get into the

most part; picked to happen in late June, when weather is neither too
hot nor cold in CT, home of ARRL. Now, those of us in the desert
Southwest have to sweat if we stay outdoors and risk sun stroke every
year we do Field Day! There is strong sentiment in the Southern ARRL
divisions for moving FD to a milder weather time of year for all, like
Spring or Fall. Or have a choice of having one in Winter or one in Summer!
