It might be spring where you are, but atop New Hampshire’s Mount Washington, it is still very much winter.
According to the Mount Washington Observatory, the mountain has received more than 22 inches of new snow over the last three days.
A photo posted on the Mount Washington Observatory Facebook page shows a monster drift outside the front entrance of the Sherman Adams building. “Note the 4-foot tall yellow stanchion in the foreground, which is just about buried in the “shallow” portion of the drift,” officials wrote on the page, “… it’s peak nearly grazes the bottom of the observation deck in the background!”
