Mt. Washington Redux: July 4th, 2008




Unlike our previous visit (wind gusts to 50 mph, visibility 35 ft.), this was a flawlessly clear day--a view of five states, and an unnerving view, too, of just how high up we were riding...



Like all intrepid tourists, we cannot resist being photographed at the summit: "I claim this mountaintop!"










At the top of the mountain: the Weather Observatory, the famous and picturesque train (Drew talking to engineer) and Marty, the Observatory cat!


Here Drew prepares the bike for the brake-punishing trip back down the mountain.
