Cume do Mount Washington

Mount Washington, at 6,288 feet high, is the highest elevation in the northeastern United States. This fact alone and the fantastic view attract many visitors every year. Although the summit is also accessible by car and cog railroad, countless hikers choose to climb it on foot. The mountain is considered one of the most dangerous on the continent. The White Mountains, where Mount Washington is located, are notorious for their rapid and drastic weather changes. If you started your hike in the valley in beautiful weather, up here in the mountains you will probably experience freezing temperatures and gnarly winds.

If you want to climb the mountain, make sure you have several layers of clothing as well as a wind and rain jacket, even if the weather is still beautiful when you start your hike.
