Working For The Weekend 5: Mount Washington
Ben discusses his deep family roots with the White Mountains. He and the crew hike and shred some of the lesser known areas around Mount Washington, NH and a mix of sun, clouds, wind, calm, snow and slush accompany them on their tours… pretty much standard for the mountain known to have “the world’s worst weather.”
Music in this episode:
Sofa Surfers – “See the Light”
