    Scenery is indeed God's other Book and despite the obvious meltdown of the world around us God's good earth is still good. all of us youtubers are endlessly in your debt for your masterpiece of landscape splendor. If I had the money of a Bill Gates I would see to it that all teens living in ghettoes would have the chance to see face to face the kind of scenery you have shown us.
    until we see it ourselves and taste in full THE POWER OF PLACE we remain like tiny mice peeping out of our tiny holes.

      The world is a beautiful place and unfortunately not everyone gets to or wants to see it. It changes your own perspective on life sometimes when you view other parts of the world that one normally does not explore.

    I went to the summit of Mt. Washington via the Auto Road a couple of times. Once with my own car and the other via a van service, which is an option if you don't want to do the driving yourself. The views are spectacular!

      Hi Thomas, yes they were! The wind is unbelievable too. You are literally touching the clouds. One day I want to hike it by foot but I’ve heard how dangerous it could be.

      If it’s the amazon size van it should be ok. Anything longer might be tough since roads are narrow and turns are sharp. Also on the way down we had to put it on manual 1 so our breaks don’t get too hot. The tour is on the opposite side of the entrance street turn into the toll area. There is a big sign that says tours.

      This is how to find the Mountain when you’re going up the auto road once you find mountains with snow find the one that’s the tallest with the snow

    hi there, is it worth visiting summit during the month of may or its better to visit during aug-sep.

    • @RunWithJ

      May should be fine. I think there is a lot of people there already this year. There might still be some snow in the high peaks but overall you should be ok.

    It is a fantastic drive, but can be scary due to the drop offs going up on the right side with no guard rails!

      It sure is! Especially before you get above the clouds.

    How much of the drive is right on the cliff side? I’m supposed to drive up it this weekend and I’m nervous that most of it will be right on the edge of the mountain

    • @RunWithJ

      It’s about mile 5 or so where you are really close. Most part of the way there is a shoulder and some stop off points to see the view and to cool the brakes when coming down. Mile 1 or 2 is mostly trees.
