0:48.6	Ray, the weather can change on a dime here on Mount Washington.
0:51.9	Well, it's home to some of the worst weather on Earth, they say. And I believe it, at 6,288 feet tall, Mount Washington isn't just the tallest mountain in New Hampshire, it's the tallest in all of New England. I've hiked to the top maybe five or six times over the years. And we've all seen cars with those bumper stickers that read this car climb Mount Washington. We have. There's a toll road to the top and a cog rail to the top. You can drive up here, take a train, or if you're like us, if you're too dumb to do that, you can hike to the top.
1:21.5	We're heading up to the Tuckerman's ravine side of the mountain. It's a long hike, too, about 4.2 miles from the parking lot to the top. And the weather up here can get extreme quick, too. Now, I've hiked this trail in August, where the temperatures were in the mid-70s at the base and the mid-30s at the summit. And if you don't have the right gear for that, I mean, this can be a dangerous place. Yeah, I can imagine. Every few years, someone makes the news for dying up here.

1:56.8	Okay.
1:57.2	Our destination is just up there ahead.
2:00.3	We've come to Mount Washington to explore the story behind one of those deaths. We're here to find where Lizzie Bourne took her last breath.
