OK, this is probably wasted time (either because it's not worth it or someone's done it already ;) ), but anyone care about the list of high points in each of the towns in the White Mountains or North Country of NH?

I started a list, don't intend to visit some of these places (esp. the ones on town boundaries not on peaks or trails... UGH!) but was curious how many I've visited so far. Help/comments welcome.

Let's see if HTML works...
 
phooey, you can't embed tables. oh, well, here it is in text format. I think this is all the Coos towns except Lancaster/Dalton/Whitefield. gotta get back to work :/

George Pearlstein became the first to finish the county HP of VT as a byproduct of visiting all town HP of VT.

Gene Daniell was looking at NH and I went to the town HP of Mason with him (a non-descript bump in a woodlot), but he is out of hiking for now. I will have a look at your list tonight.

Randolph, officially unnamed peak often called S Weeks
 
Roy -- thanks and I agree w/ all your helpful comments including those you emailed me in those N Country towns I didn't get right.

I will finish Grafton and Carroll County and then re-post. (+ assign Jackson and Tamworth to their proper counties... :eek: )
