Additional Details:
MT. MADISON: ONE OF THE LOFTY PRESIDENTIAL RANGE OF MOUNTAINS RISING BESIDE MT. WASHINGTON TO A HEIGHT OF 5,365 FEET. THE HUT STANDS ON THE BORDER OF THE TIMBER LINE, ABOVE WHICH APPEARS AN AREA OF BALD ROCK, SUGGESTIVE OF THE DESOLATION AND SOLITUDE WHICH REIGNS SUPREME. THE CONTRAST BETWEEN SUCH RUGGED, STERILE SCENES AND THE SMILING, VERDURE-CLOTHED VALLEYS FROM ONE OF THE CHIEF CHARMS OF THE WHITE MOUNTAIN LANDSCAPE.
