Mount Washington
Mount Washington isn’t the most impressively tall, memorable, or beautiful peaks in America, but it is one of the most dangerous. Located in the White Mountain National Forest in New Hampshire, the mountain’s height relative to its location makes it one of the windiest places on Earth. You likely will be barred from visiting in the winter, because temperatures regularly drop below -30° Fahrenheit, and the wind speeds clock in at over 200 mph. However, the warmth of the summertime causes the weather to be much less dangerous, so you should think about visiting in July or August.
