Once a year at Badger Peabody & Smith Realty, we try to partake in one group outing that showcases an area we work in – this year we were pleased to enjoy a trip up the Mt. Washington Cog Railway to the Northeast's highest summit, Mt. Washington!

It was a rare day, as it was CLEAR at the summit and all the way up! What a brilliant day for a special trip!

We had close to 60 agents and staff members participate and they took lots and lots of photos! On this clear day, they could see the ocean, the mountains and everything in between!

Thank you to Randall Armor and the rest of the folks at the Mt. Washington Cog Railway – it was great to have your help coordinating the trip and to hear the stories about the mountain. We loved your hospitality! No wonder the Cog is considered a "must do" when visiting the area!

In addition, all of our agents and staff got a great long sleeved t-shirt to remember the day. Thank you to Embroidery by Everything Personal in Littleton, NH for making them – they are perfect!

Also a big shout out and thank you to our staff who worked to organize the event, Sara Curtis, April Reinhard & Elspeth Richardson. In addition, a big thank you to our agents & staff who helped to capture the event in photos – Eric Turchon, Wendy Holmes, Debbie Anderson,  Honour Kidd & more! We loved getting to partake in such a great activity and something here in our own backyard – we love living here!

To see more photos of the event, flip through the album here.

Northern New Hampshire has an amazing recreational resource that you may not know about called the Ammonoosuc Rail Trail.  The reclaimed rail line is now a multi-use trail that is about 20 miles one way between Woodsville and Littleton, NH.  The trail's surface is stone dust and gravel with occasional sections of chunkier ballast from the now removed train tracks.  It's a beautiful scenic route passing through woods, alongside fields, over multiple bridges and repeated views of the Ammonoosuc River.

There are a variety of spots to park, so you can tune the length of your trip to your ability and available time.  As an old rail road grade, the elevation change on the trail is minimal and gradual.  
Recently, I enjoyed a ride that was just under 20 miles from Woodsville to Lisbon and back.  I made this trip on a fat bike and that was great, but the trail is well suited to a mountain bike or gravel bike as well.  The highlights of this section of the trail are the two bridges over the Ammonoosuc River and the striking scene of the village of Bath, NH with its famous covered bridge and waterfall.  Biking the trail is fantastic, but it's a great place to walk as well.  The trail is open to ATVs, although I saw none the day I was there.  If you're in the area, get out and enjoy this truly great trail! 
If you're up for a bigger adventure, the Ammonoosuc Rail Trail is part of a longer trip that goes from Vermont to Maine called Cross New Hampshire Adventure Trail.  The 83 mile route strings together rail trails, dirt roads, paved roads and bike paths to navigate across the state passing through Woodsville, Littleton, Whitefield, Gorham and on to Bethel, Maine.
