Mount Washington Auto Road
Recorded September 15, 2016
The Mount Washington Auto Road an 8 mile toll road that extends from New Hampshire Route 16 in Pinkham Notch to the summit of Mount Washington in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. The road climbs 4,618 feet from an altitude of 1,527 feet at the bottom to 6,145 feet at the top, an average gradient of 11.6%. The road was completed and opened to the public in 1861. Due to its remarkable location, weather, and history, the Mount Washington Auto Road is unlike any other driving experience in the Eastern United States. A trip on Mount Washington Auto Road is a one-of-a-kind experience offering ever-changing weather extremes, panoramic views and the opportunity to pass through four distinct climate zones as you climb to the highest peak in the Northeast. This video is one complete roundtrip of the scenic journey.

The White Mountains are a mountain range covering about a quarter of the state of New Hampshire and a small portion of western Maine in the United States.
Driving Snowcoach Up Mt. Washington, New Hampshire
Mt. Washington SnowCoaches leave the base area of the Auto Road and Great Glen Trails Outdoor Center and climb up about 4.5 miles, or two thirds of the way to the summit. Upon arrival at the “Top of the Tour”, passengers are invited to exit the SnowCoach for a few minutes for photos and video opportunities before climbing back aboard for the downward journey back to the base.
At times views can be breathtaking overlooking the protected Great Gulf Wilderness and the Presidential mountain range. At other times high winds and snow can be experienced allowing passengers to witness the extreme conditions which Mount Washington is so well known for.
The Mt. Washington SnowCoach is a custom-designed tour vehicle which climbs up to tree-line on Mt. Washington (approximately 4,200 feet) for a one-of-a-kind adventure.
Powered by a 4-track, all-wheel-powered drive-train, the 9 passenger Mt. Washington SnowCoach transports guests (weather permitting) into a treeless, sub-arctic world for a truly unforgettable adventure which anyone of any age will enjoy!
Mount Washington is the highest peak in the Northeastern United States at 6,288 ft (1,917 m) and the most prominent mountain east of the Mississippi River. It is famous for dangerously erratic weather. For 76 years, until 2010, a weather observatory on the summit held the record for the highest wind gust directly measured at the Earth's surface, 231 mph (372 km/h or 103 m/s), on the afternoon of April 12, 1934. Before European settlers arrived, the mountain was known as Agiocochook, or Home of the Great Spirit.
The mountain is located in the Presidential Range of the White Mountains, in the township of Sargent's Purchase, Coös County, New Hampshire. While nearly the whole mountain is in the White Mountain National Forest, an area of 59 acres (24 ha) surrounding and including the summit is occupied by Mount Washington State Park.

The White Mountains are a mountain range covering about a quarter of the state of New Hampshire and a small portion of western Maine in the United States. They are part of the northern Appalachian Mountains and the most rugged mountains in New England. The range is heavily visited due to its proximity to Boston and, to a lesser extent, New York City and Montreal.
Most of the area is public land, including the White Mountain National Forest and a number of state parks. Its most famous mountain is 6,288-foot (1,917 m) Mount Washington, which is the highest peak in the Northeastern U.S. and which held the record for fastest surface wind gust (231 miles per hour (372 km/h), over 100 m/s, in 1934) in the world for 76 years. Mount Washington is part of a line of summits, the Presidential Range, that are named after U.S. presidents and other prominent Americans.
The White Mountains also include the Franconia Range, Sandwich Range, Carter-Moriah Range and Kinsman Range in New Hampshire, and the Mahoosuc Range straddling the border between it and Maine. In all, there are 48 peaks within New Hampshire as well as one (Old Speck Mountain) in Maine over 4,000 feet (1,200 m), known as the Four-thousand footers.
The Whites are known for a system of alpine huts for hikers operated by the Appalachian Mountain Club. The Appalachian Trail crosses the area from southwest to northeast.
It is not clear where the name White Mountains came from. There is no record of what Native Americans called the range, although pre-Colonial names for many individual peaks are known. The name and similar ones such as White Hills or Wine Hills are found in literature from Colonial times. According to tradition, the mountains were first sighted from shipboard off the coast near the Piscataqua estuary. The highest peaks would often be snow-capped, appearing white. An alternate theory is that the mica-laden granite of the summits looked white to observers.

Winter Storm Stella rated Category 3 , or major, on the Northeast Snowfall Impact Scale (NESIS) released by NOAA.
The storm was a blockbuster that brought 3 to almost 5 feet of snow to parts of New York state, Pennsylvania and Vermont, along with wind gusts over hurricane force to coastal New England.
The NESIS ranks high-impact Northeast winter storms by using population and snowfall amounts. NESIS also looks at the size of the snowfield, which for Stella covered most of the Northeast. The scale ranges from 1-5 using a formula that incorporates these ingredients, and Stella fell well into the Category 3 criteria.
Other storms that have received a Category 3 rating are winter storms Kari (2015), Pax (2014) and Maximus (2014).
This is the sixth storm to be rated Category 3 or higher since 2012, one of which, Winter Storm Jonas, was a Category 4.
The Bolton Valley Ski Area, located in the Green Mountains of northern Vermont east of Burlington, reported a storm total of 58 inches of snow early on the morning of March 16.
Stella was the second-heaviest snowstorm in 117 years of records in Burlington, Vermont, and a record for the month of March, with 30.4 inches of snow. Only the Jan. 2-3, 2010 snowstorm (33.1 inches) was heavier, there.
At Bradley International Airport near Windsor Locks, Connecticut, Stella's 15.8 inches of snow on March 14 was the snowiest calendar day in any spring month (March through May) in records dating to 1905.
It was also the third-heaviest March snowstorm in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, topped only by the 1993 Superstorm (20.4 inches) and a late March 1891 storm (18 inches).
Widespread 1- to 3-foot snow accumulations have piled up in parts of the Northeast, led by 48.4 inches in Hartwick, New York. At least one location in 16 states has seen a foot of snow from Stella in the Midwest and Northeast.

Hiking up and down Mount Washington in New Hampshire. Still can't believe we ran into two moose like that. It was amazing. I might have only showed them for a minute but I watched them and followed them from a far for about an hour taking photographs.
You should definitely consider the hike if you're ever in the area. Mount Washington is beautiful. The weather can be bad though so make sure you know before you go.

The Most Extreme Weather Spot in the World?! Mount Washington Cog Railway - New Hampshire
Mount Washington is home to the most extreme weather on Earth. It has recorded what was once the fastest wind gust speed ever on Earth, and is notorious for its ever changing weather conditions. Over 60% of the time the mountain is covered with clouds, as this is one of the few places in the world where the jet stream actually touches land. On the day of our visit, we took the Cog Railway up to the top, and were greeted by rain, wind, and clouds. We all enjoyed exploring the Extreme Weather exhibit and Peter and Josiah braved the rain to reach the summit of the mountain.

Mount Washington | Ammonoosuc Ravine Trail | Cog Railway | 2017 | New Hampshire | USA
In this vlog post we are hiking up Mount Washington in New Hampshire, USA. We drove the 12 hours from Nova Scotia, so spend 4 days in the great area of the USA. We did some camping at the KOA near the Ammonoosuc Ravine Trail Head and where the Cog Railway starts. We ended up taking the bio diesel train down.
The hike up took about 6 hours to complete. We experienced some hail at the top, which isn't surprising since it has the worst weather in the United States. We decided to take the Cog Railway down and enjoy the views from there!
