From the important work of the US Army Signal Service in the 1870s to the modern-day weather broadcasts of the Mount Washington Observatory, this mountaintop post has witnessed a rapid evolution in how humans communicate with each other. Join us as Will Broussard, Outreach Coordinator at Mount Washington, delves into the history of communications as experienced atop Mt. Washington.
