The Russell Colbath House has an interesting history. Click above to read the history. He epitomizes the “the man who

The last photo is Mt. Washington, the tallest mountain in the White Mountain Range.
Mount Washington is the highest peak in the Northeastern United States at 6,288 ft (1,917 m). It is famous for its dangerously erratic weather, and long held the record for the highest wind gust directly measured at the Earth's surface, 231 mph
Have to admit it’s pretty to look at but we did not take the road up. Maybe it was the $25.00 road fee.
