Two dozen hikers had to be rescued from Mount Washington this week, as they were ‘unprepared’ for the winter-like conditions on New England’s highest peak.
For people who are unfamiliar with the region, Mount Washington in New Hampshire is unlike other mountains in the area because even if the weather is warm at the base, once you start getting near the top it is cold, even in summer months. At this time of year, it can seem like winter near the top with snow and freezing winds. More
Two dozen and not a one of them thought to look into the likely conditions they’d be walking through. Must be Democrats.
New England. Same as Old England. Retards. Should have let them turn into pop cycles. I Phones have a bitchen weather app.
Two dozen? How many groups or mass stupidity? iPone has an app (above), so does Andtiod, Alexa, the Weather Channel…..
Mt Washington is notorious for bad weather, holding the US record for coldest windchill -108F in 2023 and 1934.
How many were wearing Crocs?
Mt Washingtom is a REAL good place to FAFO.
Every year something like this happens
Probably not from the area
Boston or something like that
So dumb
One search on Mt Washington and you will see it’s the worst weather in the US and highest winds
We go up in Sept and wear winter coats
I’d like to see some pictures of these dolts. No way they post some Tik Toks before their phones froze. And how bad could it be if the railroad guy rescued them, and the “summit” was halfway up? Were these some…urban…adventurers?
I hiked Mt Washington in my late 20’s with this beautiful girl on a 3rd date. We hiked up and she decides we should run back down. I had no idea she was this fitness nazi. I did it but couldn’t move for 1 week. lol
PS. I never did close the deal. young and stupid.
I remember a guide in Colorado saying that the only time you could be fairly certain of not getting caught in a snowstorm was during the middle week of summer. And even then you wanted to be prepared in case it did happen.
