Unsurpassed Views of The Presidents on the Auto Rd. Climb to the top of Mt. Washington
Mt. Washington Auto Road的点评
点评:This is definitely a "must do" when coming to the White Mountains!
And if you have some time it is imperative to pick a very sunny day as clouds are surrounding Mt. Washington 6288 ' 70% of the time so visibility will be limited.
The van ride was a perfect trip up to the summit last Friday and the driver Lefty gave us good overview of the fabled Auto Road and the fascinating history that surrounds this unique eight mile journey to the top. He described well how the vegetation changes along the way and how the trees adapt to this unforgiving harsh climate.
I have taken the van many times and it never fails to show the beauty and stunning vistas of the mountains from every corner that we turned.
The summit houses the Mt. Washington Observatory, a museum, small cafe and Tip Top Hotel.
Take a tour too to hear the stories of life on top where the largest wind gust of 231 mph. was recorded in 1934 and meet the people that spend a week at a time monitoring some of the worst weather in the world.
The Tip Top Hotel is also worth a visit and the third hotel on that site.
This indeed will not disappoint!
翻译:来白山旅游,这绝对是“必做之事”!
如果您时间充裕,务必选择晴天前往,因为华盛顿山(海拔6288英尺)70%的时间都被云雾笼罩,能见度有限。
上周五,我们乘坐面包车前往山顶,一路风景如画。司机莱夫蒂(Lefty)为我们详细介绍了这条著名的汽车公路,以及这段独特的八英里登山之旅背后引人入胜的历史。他生动地描述了沿途植被的变化,以及树木如何适应这片严酷的气候。
我曾多次乘坐这辆面包车,每次都能欣赏到令人叹为观止的山景,无论我们转弯到哪个弯道,都能饱览壮丽的山景。
山顶上设有华盛顿山天文台、博物馆、小咖啡馆和顶级酒店(Tip Top Hotel)。
您还可以参加导览,聆听山顶上的故事,那里曾记录到高达231英里/小时的阵风。这段视频录制于1934年,您将有机会结识那些每周驻守一周,监测世界上一些最恶劣天气的人们。
蒂普托普酒店也值得一去,它是该地点的第三家酒店。
这绝对不会让您失望!
