The one and only - most easily ascended from Eaton's Snowvillage Inn, which a few years ago tried to market itself as the destination for vacationers who enjoy XC skiing in the nude. (I thought that was an extreme example of niche marketing.)


Roy seems to be suggesting that, in addition to Green Mt. in Effingham, another sub-2K peak in the vicinity of Greater Freedom may be on the unpublished list of "NH 48 Most Prominent." I won't be able to check my topos for a few days, but he has piqued my curiosity.

well, that was the quickest I've ever completed a list. I read about it just a few seconds ago and lo and behold, it's done already.

Welcome back, spencer! You probably have most if not all of the 42 bumps necessary to claim regardless of col selected as per EE's theorum.

Once you've done a lot of hiking, it's easy to find you've already finished a list before seeing it - happened to me with 52WAV and Y-list for example
