Mount Washington Ski Train

[seano]

I never saw this before until I took a drive up to the MT Washington hotel. The Cog Railway will take you about a mile up MT Washington and you can ski or board down. The attendant told me it was $20 a ride. Has anyone ever done this and is it worth it? I would love to hear from people who have done this

Welcome to the boards, seano. Yes, the Cog is a tourist gimmick....'bout as overpriced as Bretton Woods is right now! :wink:
