Climbing Mt. Washington

New England’s tallest peak at 6,288 feet, Mount Washington is part of New Hampshire’s dramatic Presidential Range. The mountain is a cornerstone of the region's outdoor culture, and it attracts many hikers who take to the trails and head for the summit. Come along and follow me on my hike to the summit on an August day.
