Ghosts

View of Pack Monadnock from Temple Mountain Summit Lift House

Ghost town. Conjures up images of tumbleweeds blowing across dusty streets. Of saloon doors banging together under the influence of a hot dry wind. Of run-down buildings bleached soft gray under the relentless sun.

But what about rusting lift towers? Old sodium lamps that once illuminated night runs? A pile of old blue double chairs with hand painted numbers?

Forgotten mountains have their ghosts too.
