We were contacted by a person looking for guidance and a guide for a hike up Mt Washington. Doing this hike, as we learned, was a bucket list item for them. We were happy to play a role is this endeavor. Leading this hike was Redline Guide Rhonda Willette. It is her words and photos that follow…
A 2026 bucket‑list dream came to life yesterday on Mount Washington as a mom and her two adult children from Maryland took on the challenge of their first-ever hike in the White Mountains. They met the steep, rugged terrain with steady determination, resilience, and a true can‑do attitude, moving together in a way that was genuinely inspiring to witness. It was a pleasure to be part of this dream and to share the day with them. —Rhonda
