We were asked: Is it possible to hike up Mt Washington and take the Cog Railway down? Yes. A round trip ticket is needed to assure the train will be available, but this is certainly an option. And it’s not a bad one. Naturally the team ascended from the west side of the mountain taking the Ammonoosuc Ravine Trail option, then hitting Crawford Path the rest of the way. Our guest met a friend on the summit who had taken the train up to be there and show her support. They descended together. Friendship. On lead for this trip was Redline Guide Nico Dubois.

The watery parts, now nearing treeline.
In the alpine.
Lakes of the Clouds. Nico is a professional photographer and it really shows.
Almost there, the summit structures waffling between seen and unseen thanks to the clouds.
Summit with a friend but the views are none at this moment.
The views did present. Our guest on the weather observatory’s deck.
The Northern Presidentials.
Great lead Nico, and to our guest, well done. Thank you for choosing Redline Guiding.
