This Signs of Adventure comes from deep within my photo collection. In January of 2010, along with my Friend John, we made our first winter attempt on the summit of New Hampshire’s Mount Washington. While this mountain isn’t particularly tall or technically by mountaineering standards, it does offer some pretty epically awful winter conditions. This was our first foray into the world winter mountaineering, but armed with our crampons, axes, and warm clothing we successfully marched all the way to that icy summit. On the way up, I snapped a photo of this sign, with Wild Cat ski area in the distance.
