Since 1932, a hardy, adventurous group of individuals have been living and working in one of the most extreme places on Earth... the summit of Mount Washington.
This is your chance to be part of a legend.
Every day, around the clock, the crew of the Mount Washington Observatory braves the elements, observing and reporting on the mountain's extreme conditions, conducting important scientific research and providing one-of-a-kind educational programs on and off the summit.
You can be a part of the action while supporting a legendary institution by becoming a member of the Mount Washington Observatory.
