GORHAM – In competition for about 150 years on either side of Mount Washington, officials for two iconic tourism operations were featured speakers before the governor and Executive Council meeting last Wednesday at The Glen House, a 2018-built hotel that is a sister operation to the Mount Washington Auto Road.
Officials for the Auto Road and the Cog Railway addressed councilors while getting an opportunity to hear from the new executive director of the Mount Washington Valley Chamber of Commerce Michelle Cruz and state Sen. Jeb Bradley (R-Wolfeboro) who chairs the committee working on a new master plan for Mount Washington State Park at the summit of the 6,288-foot peak.
