I have two framed works from my Scenes from New England series on exhibit at The Art Center in Dover, NH, from now until June 30.
Cog Nears the Summit
The cog railway train approaches the summit of Mount Washington in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. This is the world’s first mountain-climbing cog railway, operational since 1869. It’s the second-steepest in the world, scaling a 3-mile track to the 6,288-foot summit with a maximum grade of 37.4%.
View from Mount Washington
Distant mountains unfold in this view from the summit. The Lakes of the Clouds, seen in the lower left, are two alpine tarns nestled at 5,032 feet in the col between Mount Washington and Mount Monroe. They are the highest elevation lakes in the Northeast and serve as the base for the AMC’s hikers’ hut.
