Funny how places in the east got to have dibs on "Presidential" cause they've been settled longer, lol.

Do they still have signs on the trails "If the weather looks bad, go back NOW, people have died on this trail." ?????

We saw them in '77 or '78, hiking that range ON SNOWSOES, during Christmas break.

Then skied at Wildcat Mountain and Waterville Valley too.

Been thru there 4 times in the last 25 yrs...…..one of my favorite places.

Came VERY close to work up there for Thompson Center as a machinist several yrs later.

Nice pic.....too many trees for me back there! I'm a plains kind of guy! I worked in Berlin at the paper mill years ago, two different times. Fished for some brookies and killed a bear while there. The whole east would be okay, if there wern't so many people there! Climate is nice, funny on a hot day of maybe ninty something, everyone there thought they were gonna die! Thing I remember most about NH, you walk into a resturant, and the first question the waitress asks you, "you all set?". That passes for "are you ready to order" everywhere else I have ever been!

No, that can't be New Hampshire? I don't see Ness running on that hillside waving a Bruins flag, screaming something about freedom.

I personally believe it has more to do with the names of the mountains than whom claimed what.


The Presidential Range is a mountain range located in the White Mountains of the U.S. state of New Hampshire. Containing the highest peaks of the Whites, its most notable summits are named for American presidents, followed by prominent public figures of the 18th and 19th centuries. The Presidential Range is notorious for having some of the worst weather on Earth, mainly because of the unpredictability of high wind speeds and whiteout conditions on the higher summits. Because of the poor weather conditions, the Presidential Range is often used for mountaineering training for those who go on to climb some of the world's highest mountains, including K2 and Everest.

Worked up that way on some carpentry jobs many many moons ago.
There are too many people in the East and it is getting worse.
I think I would like your country for the great number of coyotes and probably all the cats, but after that give me the Maine woods any darn day of the week. Woods, fields, rivers, streams, brooks, lakes, ponds, cedar swamps, all of it. I would hate not live here.

But you invite me to coyote trap for a week or two and I will probably end up on your door step!

Looks like a little piece of heaven, Nessie, but...if you look really close at the picture, it looks like there is a guy peeing on the large tree in the left/center part of the picture. He appears to be wearing a little skirt and looks a lot like Tom Brady.

New Hampshire, Maine, and Vermont are the most beautiful states in the northeast. I love the Adirondacks too, but I agree that there are just too many people.We need to let a few more million illegals in,.Sick and tired going everywhere I go seeing half the signs in Spanish. I'll take the New England accent anytime. Fresh seafood and clean air. Only one thing wrong, and that's spelled BRADY.

Re: What NH Looks like... - 06/09/19 10:46 PM

It sure is beautiful country up there. I was in the Adirondacks last week and it was wonderful. Could’ve done without the black flies... put up my first fisher though so that was nice.

You can say what you want about anyone crazy enough to live where there are only two seasons, Winter, and The Other Two Months, but there is nowhere on Earth where it gets as dark green as it does in Yankeeland during those two months.

I would not be any where else, even though the summers are short.

I believe the 2nd highest recorded wind speed on earth was recorded on the

summit weather station of 6,288 ft Mountain Washington on

April 12th, 1934 at 231 MPH.

Higher wind speeds have since been recorded in

various tornado, typhoon, or hurricane episodes but

Mount Washington still holds the record for non-cyclonic events.
