PINKHAM NOTCH — The Mount Washington Auto Road took a step back in time Saturday evening, as friends and management of the “Road to the Sky” celebrated the peak of the road's season-long 150th anniversary celebration with a vintage costume dinner and fireworks that even included an appearance by 17th-century Mount Washington explorer Darby Field.

Among those on hand for the tented gala at the base of the Auto Road were descendants of the Libby family, the original owners of the road, which is said to be America's oldest man-made attraction.
