Nestled in New Hampshire's Presidential Range, Mount Washington is renowned not just for its elevation but also for its extreme weather. Here are three intriguing facts about climbing this formidable peak:

 

1. Weather Extremes: Mount Washington is home to some of the most severe weather conditions in the world. In 1934, it recorded the highest wind speed ever measured on Earth—231 mph—making it a true challenge for climbers.
2. Historic Route: The first successful ascent of Mount Washington was made in 1642 by the explorer Darby Field. His climb marked one of the earliest recorded ascents of a major American peak.
3. Unique Summit: The summit of Mount Washington is also the site of the Mount Washington Observatory, where scientists monitor weather patterns. The observatory is one of the oldest continuously operated weather stations in the world.

 

The Mt. Washington Bench Mark Medallion comes with a felt backing, a soft fleece pouch, and is packaged in a clear vinyl box, making it a perfect gift to commemorate any adventure. Whether you've conquered the peak yourself or are honoring a loved one's achievement, this medallion serves as a lasting reminder of the grandeur of Mount Washington.
