Mountain Pass
Taken on Highway 16 North in the White Mountain National Forest, New Hampshire, USA on Saturday May 17, 2008. The view is looking towards Mt Washington, the highest peak on the Eastern seaboard. We took the Auto Drive Route up the mountain when we arrived there but it does not resemble this road in any way. It is treacherous, with shear drop offs on each side, just room enough for two cars, but they ask that people coming down the mountain yield to travellers going up. The top 4000 ft of the mountain was off limits due to weather conditions: snow and ice, but will open later in the season.
Mountain Pass belongs to the following groups:
