Whiteface Mountain

The weather station at the summit of one of the most exposed peaks of the Adirondacks region. We didn't hike but drove up here, along a road that was built as part of a job creation scheme during the Great Depression of the 1930s.

Stunning views and beautiful but fragile alpine flora. On a very clear day (yesterday was one of those) you can see Montreal from here, almost 150 kms away.
