2012 Map of Mount Washington

About this map

White Mountains peaks dominate this survey, centered on the massif where the Mount Washington Auto Rd winds toward the highest summit. The landscape is defined by its extreme alpine topography, from the deep glacial cirques of Tuckerman Ravine and Huntington Ravine to the high-elevation Lakes of the Clouds. Transport networks are concentrated in the lower valleys and notches, including the Base Station serving the cog railway and the small settlements of Appalachia and Bowman along the northern rail corridor and Valley Rd. The map meticulously details the drainage systems that feed the regional rivers, such as the Ammonoosuc River and the Peabody River, while identifying remote landmarks like Great Gulf Shelter and Edmands Col that facilitate movement through this high-altitude terrain.
