Atop Mount Washington - My World
This image was taken several years ago - with a manual SLR camera and a roll of slide film.
We climbed Mount Washington, the highest summit in the northeast on a hot summer day on a motorcycle.
It was very windy and quite cold at the summit.
We left the tree line about half way up the mountain - all that was left on the barren top was lichen on the rocks - and how hardy that life form was!
It is said that on a crystal clear day, one can see the Atlantic Ocean which is over 80 miles away - as the bird flies.
It was an experience I will not forget - standing on top of my world for an afternoon.
Memories...I hiked up Mt. Washington about 5 years ago. The hike is pretty relentless and took us about 5 hours if I remember correctly.
ReplyDeleteI have to say, the summit is the least 'zen' summit i've been too, with so many people and so many cars. But, you can buy a t-shirt!
Still, the view is incredible.
