1893 Map of Mt. Washington

USGS Topo · Published 1893

About this map

The Mt. Washington Railway ascends the western slopes of the Presidential Range, anchoring a landscape defined by late-nineteenth-century alpine tourism and high-elevation topography. Large seasonal hotels such as Fabyan House, Mt. Pleasant House, and the Ravine House serve as primary hubs for visitors navigating the peaks and glacial ravines. The map reveals an intricate network of specialized footpaths including the Lowe Path, Air Line Path, and Gordon Ridge Path, which provided access to the summits of Mt. Adams and Mt. Madison before the establishment of modern trail systems.
