Berlin Regional Airport KMBL → Portland International KPWM
The flight took me back to the coast, but not without flying over Mt. Washington once more. The wind, coming almost straight down the approach path, helped with the buttery-smooth landing in Portland.

ABC News: Over 20 'ill-prepared' hikers rescued from snowy Mount Washington: Officials
Over 20 "ill-prepared" hikers were rescued from New Hampshire's Mount Washington after they were trapped in "full winter conditions" without the proper gear, with some developing hypothermia.

Two experienced hikers were rescued after an hourslong ordeal in which they became stranded in waist-deep snow and whiteout conditions on New Hampshire's challenging Mount Washington. Mount Washington is the tallest peak in the Northeast at 6,288 feet and is known for its extreme weather conditions. The hikers called 911 on Sunday night. The state's Fish and Game Department learned that they were stuck at an elevation of about 5,000 feet. A nine-member rescue team aboard a Mount Washington State Park snowcat vehicle trekked up the mountain's auto road. Rescuers eventually snowshoed their way to the hikers early Monday. Both suffered some frostbite injuries, but were otherwise OK.

Got a chance to sneak out for a quick ride this afternoon. Maybe a bit past peak, but pretty nice color in southern Maine, USA. Ghostly, snow covered Mt. Washington in the far distance.
Episode one hundred and sixty-three is up now! Today's song is Mt. Washington by Local Natives.
I discuss the ethereal feeling of the music, and the sad, relatable lyrics, used to great effect in Life Is Strange episode 2.

July 2020 visit to the Mt Washington area of new Hampshire found us at the summit. Elevation 6228 feet 1898 meters. Beautiful summer day down below where we stayed. Up top, cold and very very windy. Fun being just in the clouds and watching them roll past us.
Got a chuckle with this building being chained down. But the sign says it all.
