I took the cog railway up with my ex husband when
we were "courting" I think 
it was 1966 (?) anyway, it was the year before the
cog railway fell off the
track.  IT was also a time where you could stay in
a a room at the top...
not something you could do much later...
We had the only room with running water - for
$24.00 , I think, for the night.
It was t-shirt and shorts weather at the base and
below freezing at the summit -
and damn windy.  This was a couple of years before
we started camping and backpacking.

On MT Katahdin, we hiked to the summit in July and
there were two hale storms along the way.

I don't have a bumper sticker from Mt. Washington
, Frank - but I got pictures :)
That was when I took the camera from my hubby to
be and said -- can I try that???
