Additional Details:
The Presidential Range of the White Mountain Presents a thrilling and dramatic spectacle: it comprises Star King, 3915 ft; Dartmouth, 3750 ft; Jefferson, 5725 ft; Clay, 5554 ft; Monroe, 5390 ft; Franklin, 5028 ft; Pleasant, 4775 ft; Clinton, 4275 ft; Jackson, 4012 ft, and the highest and most beautiful of all, Mt. Washington, 6290 ft. Have you answered the mountain's summons In the crimson and gold of fall? Have you wondered out in the forest And heard the out-door call? Have you stood on the mountain's summit? And gazed down the sunset's trail, And watched the mists of the evening Wrap the silent hills in their veil? And high in the silent mountains, As you gaze on the hills below, The taint of the earth will leave you, And the pride in your heart will go. You will see the smile of the Maker, In the midst of the sentinels grand, You will see the smile of the Maker, In the midst of the sentinels grand, You will get a glimpse of the power And Skill of the Master's hand.
