Jeff DeRosa
For those of you who missed Jeff’s talk in Maine last night, here is one more chance to see his presentation next week. What a great idea to have this on Martha’s Vineyard!
“On Saturday, November 26th at 7 p.m., Outreach Coordinator Jeff DeRosa will be giving a program on beautiful Martha’s Vineyard. In connection with Mass Audubon Felix Neck. Jeff will give a program titled ‘From Summit to Sea Level’ where he ties the extremes of Northern New England (the mountains) together with the warm waters of Southern New England. For more information about this program, please contact Outreach Assistant Rebecca Scholand at rscholand @ mountwashington . org.”
Incidentally, Jeff is very knowledgeable about all aspects of Mount Washington, having worked atop the summit for several years. Currently Outreach Coordinator at MWOBS, his duties include leading the popular overnight summit Winter EduTrips. He has also experienced weather in Antarctica almost as severe as the summit of Mount Washington – spending nearly two years conducting surface and upper atmospheric observations at the South Pole where he endured a low temperature of -108 degF (Wind Chill = -160 degF).
