1995 Map of Mount Washington

USGS Topo · Published 1999

About this map

Mount Washington dominates this high-altitude landscape, a focal point for late twentieth-century recreation and infrastructure in the Presidential Range. The summit is marked by Communication Towers and Mount Washington State Park, served by the famous Cog Railroad ascending from Base Station and Marshfield Station. The map illustrates the complex network of footpaths that define the White Mountains, including the Appalachian Trail as it traverses the Great Gulf Wilderness and the Alpine Garden Research Natural Area. Alpine accommodations such as Madison Hut, Lakes of the Clouds Hut, and the Perch Shelter provide critical points of interest for historical research into the development of New England's backcountry tourism. To the north, the corridor through Randolph shows the transition from valley settlements like Bowman and Appalachia to the steep ascent of Mount Adams and Mount Madison.
