Tuesday 8/14
Today we are going to the top of Mt. Washington, New Englands highest peak at 6,288 feet. It is a trip much like Pike’s Peak but not nearly as high. We drove up but they do have a Cog Railway and guided tours that bring people up in a van, give them ½ hour to look around and then take them back down. In the winter they have a Snow Coach that escorts people up to the top. The climate changes dramatically from the bottom to the top. When we arrived at the top it was only 43 degrees with high winds.
