Mt washington climb compared to Mt Katahdin?

I've hike Katahdin going up the saddle and across the knife edge 10 years ago and am in the same shape. How is Mt Washington in comparison to the Katahdin hike? What trails are similar? Are there any good camping sites, hotels, or micro breweries near the mountain? Thanks in advance.

    Mt Washington is steeper, but if you're in reasonable shape and the weather is OK, it's not hard to hike up and down in a day. Or you can always wimp out and take the train down.

    The Mt Washington hotel in Bretton Woods is an expensive and elegant resort at the foot of the mountain. Hikers stay in the AMC's huts, which provide dinner, a bed, and breakfast, three of which are on Mt Washington. Bring your own sheets, book well in advance because they're very popular. They also have two lodges at the base of the mountain with more comfortable accomodations.

    Where did you ever get the idea that they don't allow it. I think the bible freaks should actually be forced to go and explore Mount Ararat. The more of their ridiculous claims they are forced to prove maybe the fewer of them they will make. There are NO six thousand year old boats on top of the mountain! That is why the Bible thumpers refuse to explore it.

    Which Mount Washington do you mean? There are at least six in North America alone.
