Wind Sledding 12-24-06

Wind propelled sledding across the observation deck at the Mount Washington Observatory. Winds were 75 mph gusting to 100 mph.

Since 1932, the Observatory has been observing Mount Washington's incredible extremes, conducting scientific research, educating the public about the science of weather and climate and amassing one of North America's longest and most unique climate records.
