Default (US) SSA National Landmark of Soaring

"What world record was set in New Hampshire in 1969?"

The glider pilots of Region 1 are working to establish Mount
Washington, New Hampshire as the 14th National Landmark of
Soaring.

We are seeking financial support.

The history section is fantastic. After seeing the amount of detail,
there must have been a bunch of research and effort to put that
together. Nice job. The committee(?) also has made it easy to
contribute on-line and so I rewarded the effort with a few tax
deductable dollars. http://www.ssaregion1.org/landmark.htm

I'd like to make a correction to this thread: The National Landmarks of
Soaring program is an activity of the National Soaring Museum. SSA has
nothing to do with it.

NSM's Landmarks Committee is ably chaired by Simine Short. Whenever a
new landmark is proposed, a local committee is organized to do the bulk
of the work. As has been noted by others, the committee working on
Landmark #14, Mount Washington, is doing a terrific job.
