The Mount Washington auto road gave us the ride of a lifetime. Scenic vistas for passengers (not the driver). Suggest you trade drivers so each of you can take the time to see. Plenty of roadside turn-offs so you can take plenty of pictures. The day we went was clear with temperatures in the 80's at the beginning of the road. Temprerature at the summit was in the upper 40's, make sure to bring a jacket even in the summer. We were able to see great distances and the 'breeze' was refreshing. Full facilities available with the exception of gasoline.
