Here's a shot from today of the Mt Washington Grand Hotel on the other side of the mountain. Pic is from Bretton Woods side. Behind it is the cog railway and home of the 53 channel 8 cat in the clouds. Last of the grands. Only a handful left. Most died due to fire.

I heard(herd) of a small movement pushing for restoration in the East with support from the West.
Also could be part of the strategic cat collection supply just in case.

Gregg numbered all the cats he sold, not the factory, they could have cared less, they were too busy counting their money and building the machines cheaper and charging more for them.
most importantly, without David A Gregg, there would be no tucker snow cat today, he made tucker successful...

It looks just like the junk yard pics except it runs and moves now and sits in a different state.
Plans are for it to be made whole again one day!
