| 🚗 "驼鹿巷"自驾 · Rt 16 北段 | ✅ 永远开放(这是条公路) | ⭐⭐ 黄昏沿 16 号北上 Berlin→Milan 方向慢开:路边湿地是驼鹿食堂。免费版驼鹿团,但天黑后驼鹿撞车是真风险——慢+远光警惕 |

| ⛷️ Nansen 大跳台遗迹 | ⭐⭐ 1936 年全美最大跳台的钢铁骨架立在 16 号路边(Berlin 北),1988 年废弃、2017 年短暂复活一跳——Lake Placid 跳台的"幽灵兄弟",锈得非常上相。路边公园免费看 |

规则可视化:本页所有场所的营业状态核实于 8/21。Attitash 未核实故未列;Cannon/Wildcat 已确认关闭故除名。
🏕️ What to expect · Moose Brook State Park site 025 (8/24–28): a wooded standard site + hot showers at camp + a brook + a swimming pond; Gorham 5 min away (with a Walmart: wood/ice/chicken legs all restock there); ~10°C nights under blankets; black-bear country — food lives in the trunk; little to no cell service in the park (the booking's own words) — run the Starlink obstruction scan on arrival, shower-building clearing first (the Fish Creek lesson). Office = the N Conway plaza, 35 min.
⚠️ Two "classic recommendations" are dead (verified 8/21 — the new rule at work): ① Cannon's aerial tramway retired in October 2025; a replacement won't run before ~2028 — don't go; ② Wildcat's gondola was dismantled in 1999 — the "summer scenic gondola" is stale internet. Every listing on this page has had its operating status verified.
🗺️ The playbook map
🏔️ Machines & summits (your home domain · all verified)
| Place | Verified status | The play |
|---|---|---|
| 🏔️ Mt Washington Auto Road 15 min from camp | ✅ Daily 8:30–16:00 (last car UP at 4 PM; summit cleared 45 min after close) · ~$45 car+driver, ~$14/passenger | ⭐⭐⭐ Drive to 1,917 m, the Northeast's roof — home of the 372 km/h world wind record. Not doable after work! Two real slots: a weekday long-lunch raid (~2.5 h round trip from camp) or Friday: first car up at 8:30 before checkout, then roll to JC. Under 10°C and windy up top — jackets; descend in low gear, not on brakes |
| 🎢 Cranmore Mountain Adventure Park N Conway · 10 min from the office | ✅ Daily days + Wednesday & Saturday NIGHTS 17:00–20:00 in July/Aug: mountain coaster + Soaring Eagle zipline + giant swing | ⭐⭐⭐ The perfect Wednesday after-work answer: close the laptop at 5 → 10 minutes → three machines until 8. The sequel to the Lake Placid coaster itch |
| 🚂 The Cog Railway 50 min from camp | ✅ Running · steam departures 9:00 / 14:45 Thu–Sun; biodiesel departures daily (book at thecog.com) | ⭐⭐⭐ The world's first mountain cog railway (1869). Honestly: it doesn't fit this week (a half-day plus 100 minutes of driving) — unless you sacrifice a work morning. Save it for a future loop |
🫎 The animals domain (Bloomingdale's revenge)
| Place | Verified status | The play |
|---|---|---|
| 🚌 Gorham Moose Tours departs the town common · 5 min from camp | ✅ Selling 2026 tickets (book online) · evening 3–4 h guided bus tours | ⭐⭐⭐ This town's calling card IS the moose — guides who know that night's feeding spots. The debt from Bloomingdale, repaid by professionals. Book tonight for Tue or Thu |
| 🚗 "Moose Alley" self-drive · Rt 16 north | ✅ Always open (it's a road) | ⭐⭐ Dusk crawl north toward Berlin→Milan: the roadside wetlands are moose cafeterias. The free version — but after dark, moose-car collisions are a real risk: slow, high beams, alert |
🪨 Rock & water (after-work compatible)
| Place | Verified status | The play |
|---|---|---|
| 💦 Diana's Baths 15 min from the office | ✅ Trail always open · $5 parking | ⭐⭐ A flat kilometre to a staircase of falls and wading pools — the #1 after-work stop |
| 💦 Glen Ellis Falls Pinkham Notch · 12 min from camp | ✅ Roadside trail, always open | ⭐ A single 20 m curtain of water, 10 minutes from the lot — on the way home |
| 🪨 Flume Gorge Franconia · 55 min from camp | ✅ Daily ~9:00–17:00 · buy the timed ticket online (state park — annual pass doesn't apply) | ⭐⭐ A boardwalk wedged into a 21 m granite slot. Needs a half-day — perfect for Friday southbound on I-93 (it's literally on the way to JC) |
| 🌊 The Basin I-93 roadside · next to the Flume | ✅ Free · always open | ⭐ A 9 m glacial pothole — a 15-minute stop, bundle with the Flume |
🏙️ The field trip for essay #5: Berlin (10 min from camp)
| 🏭 Berlin's Main Street | The mill town whose paper industry died in 2006 — the control group promised in "Why are the richest cities the dirtiest": thirty minutes from North Conway's resort shine, on the same Route 16. One slow drive down Main Street makes that essay three-dimensional |
| ⛷️ The Nansen Ski Jump ruin | ⭐⭐ The steel skeleton of America's largest ski jump (1936) stands beside Rt 16 north of Berlin — abandoned 1988, briefly resurrected for one jump in 2017. The ghost sibling of Lake Placid's towers, and magnificently rusty. Free, roadside |
📅 The week, arranged around verified hours
| Mon 8/24 | 2 PM meeting (N Conway plaza) → 3:30 check-in → camp + obstruction scan → the first at-camp hot shower · Gorham Walmart resupply |
| Tue | After work: Diana's Baths wading, or 🫎 the evening Moose Tour (book first) · hotpot |
| Wed | ⭐ Straight from work to Cranmore's night session 17:00–20:00: coaster + zipline + giant swing |
| Thu | Optional long-lunch raid on the Auto Road (15 min from camp, ~2.5 h round trip), or the Moose Tour tonight · dusk Moose Alley |
| Fri 8/28 | Checkout 11:00 → Plan A: first car up the Auto Road at 8:30, then checkout and go · Plan B: straight south, collect Flume + Basin on I-93 → JC (~6 h) |
The rule, made visible: every venue's operating status verified 8/21. Attitash omitted (unverified); Cannon/Wildcat removed (confirmed closed).
