If you're a "bit" more adventurous, take two cars, spot one at Lincoln Woods on the Kancamagus Hwy, drive up around to Zealand Falls Campground area off Route 3, and "do the Bonds." This is a 20-mile traverse of the Pemigewassett Wilderness, covering Mt Zealand, West Bond, Bond, and Bondcliff, all on the NH 4000 foot list. You'll see sights you can't see from any roadway at 50+ mph. It'll take you about 12 hours. Oh, wear good footwear, pack a lunch, and figure on about a gallon of water per person. Wonderful, memorable day it'll be. Beats just looking at it from far away any day.

Later, a soak in the lake, corn on the cob, and blueberry pie will be the absolute best it can be.
