Membership: Give a Gift Membership

The most impressive thing about the Observatory (in our humble opinion!) is that this institution appeals to so many people for such a wide variety of reasons.

Mount Washington Observatory supporters are backcountry skiers that hurtle down Tuckerman Ravine each spring. They are botanists that are drawn to the mountain's summer wildflower display. They are teachers who use us to inspire young minds. They are photographers that yearn for the sub-alpine tundra and birdwatchers that want to cross one more species off the list. They are also hikers that love the custom forecasts, former New Englanders that enjoy this unique link back home, and historians that understand the Observatory's impact over the decades.

And yes, many Observatory members are supreme weather junkies, people who just can't get enough of this mountain's awe-inspiring weather conditions.

The common thread is that each and every Mount Washington Observatory supporter is drawn to this mountain. This is the tallest peak in the northeastern United States and the home of the World's Worst Weather. This is our home. This is what makes the Observatory special.

An Observatory gift membership is a thoughtful, meaningful gift, perfect for the Mount Washington enthusiast of any kind. Whether for graduation, Christmas, birthday, anniversary or "just because," it's a unique way to show someone that you care.
