Mount Washington Honor Summit
 

Came up to the Red Hill fire tower tonight for the Mt. Washington Honor Summit lights, and it was just ok—we could just see it with the naked eye, though long camera shutter speeds worked better.

Here's a link to closer webcams, for those who want to see it as best as possible: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1BiwKwU1t6/

We went out in our boat off Welch and couldn’t see a thing. It was a perfectly clear night so not sure why we couldn’t see it as Mt Washington is clearly visible from our location during the day. Lots of other boats out there also looking and disappointed….:(

I think their calculations overlooked the amount of light pollution beyond the immediate Mt. Washington area. From Red Hill tower, just the glow of North Conway was enough to create an aura on the horizon that impacted its visibility.

That being said, it was a nice gesture and still pretty cool to see it, even if faintly or through photos taken from better vantage points.

*It was also a terrific weather night and opportunity to discuss horror movies to spook L'il Buddy on the way down the trail in the dark!

We went out in the broads also and couldn't see anything.

I was able to see it from Sandwich - only a single beam since I was viewing it directly from the south. It was fainter than I hoped, but I was glad to see it...
