Windy Ride!

Geneva Point · 04-29-2012, 08:30 AM

As I was driving on the highest part of Moultonborugh Neck Road yesterday afternoon my wife noticed one of the mountains looking north in the distance was completed snowed capped. Just wondering if anyone can confirm for me that it was Mount washington?

Confirmed.
There's a big old house at the corner of Moultonborough Neck Road and Ferry Road. The view behind the house is of the White Mountains and, depending on conditions, you can see Mt. Washington clearly, framed by other two other mountains.

Another windy day here on Rattlesnake. Looking towards Wolfboro watching the huge swells roll by. A Marine Patrol boat motored/drifter slowly by heading south, intermittently visible atop the crests and disappearing into the troughs. If it doesn't abate a little this afternoon we may not make it back to NY for work on Monday. As you may imagine, we are rooting for the wind. Our 20' Key West is very sea worthy, but with the water temp being what it is, if things go south it will happen quickly and we wouldn't last long. Besides, I wouldn't want to ruin Marine Patrol's Sunday.

We saw Mt Washington from Rte. 28 in Alton this morning and it is indeed snow capped! Very pretty.
