Mt Morgan is perhaps the most climbed mountain in the Squam Range. The excellent view it offers is obtained from the open, ledgy space on the left side of the mountaintop - the peak itself is to the right, but is densely wooded and has poor views. In the center of the photo you get a partial view of a huge residence, bigger even than the remarkably large Burleigh Farm barn seen in an earlier post. We see only a fraction of the building from this angle, but even that is extraordinarily large - 4 chimneys visible, 3 storeys high, a tennis court, perhaps a pool behind that high wall at the front of the building. And, according to the USGS map, there is at least 2 or 3 times as much structure behind what we can see here - it has a footprint much larger than the already huge barn, altho it is not quite so tall. I don't know if this is part of the farm itself or a private residence abutting farm property.
