In July of 2024 I'll be participating in my 11th annual Seek the Peak, a fundraiser in support of the legendary non-profit Mount Washington Observatory. Each of the last few years I have said that one of these years will be my last. I guess I have not reached that point quite yet.
After my first Seek the Peak attempt 11 years ago, I acknowledged that getting to the summit and back in a day is no longer a realistic goal, so I prefer to think of this as Seek Your Peak. Sometime in the last two weeks of July I’ll identify my “Peak” as a hike, kayak or bike ride depending a bit on the weather and my mood.
Please join me in supporting this storied institution by making a donation towards my outdoor adventure. All gifts are fully tax-deductible and will help Mount Washington Observatory continue their important work in the Home of the World’s Worst Weather. (My goal for this year is $750.)
Due to the generosity of supporters like you, the nonprofit Mount Washington Observatory has been observing and reporting on Mount Washington’s infamous conditions for 90+ years from their mountaintop weather station, maintaining one of North America's longest continuous climate records. The data they collect is utilized in forecasting models, weather reports, landmark climate research and educational outreach. The free daily forecasts that the Observatory provides are an essential resource for those wishing to enjoy the outdoors in New Hampshire's White Mountains and beyond.
Thank you for your support!
Dan
