Fall Attraction 2010 - Mount Washington, New Hampshire
Every autumn, nature puts on a brilliant show of color in many parts of the world especially in United States. The color transform from bright yellow to red. The foliage season begins in September in northern regions like New Hampshire and ends in southern region in late October.
Last year we visited Mount Washington, New Hampshire for watching the fabulous natural festival of colors. 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, holding the record for the highest wind gust directly measured at the Earth's surface, at 231 mph (372 km/h) on the afternoon of April 12, 1934.
The mountain is located in the Presidential Range of the White Mountains, in Coos County, New Hampshire. It is the third highest state high point in the eastern U.S. and the most prominent peak in the Eastern United States.
You can drive up to the Mountain or you can catch the train. The train ride was fantastic. The look and feel of the train journey on the mountain was unforgettable. Driving up hill was really adventurous.
