About this map

Mt. Washington and the surrounding Presidential Range dominate this 1891 survey, illustrating a landscape defined by early alpine tourism and complex land grants. The presence of the Mt. Washington Railroad and several prominent grand hotels, such as the Fabyan House and Mt. Pleasant House, highlights the region's emergence as a premier 19th-century destination. The map meticulously documents the network of paths used by early hikers, including the Lowe Path and Air Line Path, alongside early landmarks like the AMC Hut and the remote AMC Cabin.
