They say life is an adventure, and being up here on Mt Washington sure is! But let’s just say, the crews from the Observatory and Mount Washington State Park are having a very interesting one. Lots of changes and work are currently going on, so living and working conditions are a little tough at the moment. But all the construction will be worth it in the end, because it will make this place much more enjoyable! A very enjoyable place to volunteer, take a winter day trip, or perhaps even an overnight trip!
So, become a member, come on up, and have an adventure yourself. It will be one you will never forget! You may find yourself coming back again and again, as many others do!
