This is the town of Littleton, NH. This is their Friday afternoon traffic!
I saw a couple of these signs in Vermont as well. We don't have these in south Georgia!!
Following U.S. 302 East, I came to Twin Mountain, New Hampshire, and started seeing some impressive ski resort communities with spectacular mountain views.
Mount Washington resort...
The highway then ran through Crawford Notch State Park, where I saw a railroad depot at a location where the railway line had to be cut through a stretch of solid rock at the top of the mountain. As I was checking out the depot, some hikers came off the Appalachian Trail and took a break there. From there, the road descends quickly from the pass to the valley below, passing a pretty waterfall on the way.
All along the roads of Vermont and New Hampshire were these gorgeous mountain rivers. They are lined with stones in most places and run pretty rapidly at times.
From New Hampshire, 302 travels through the southern regions of Maine. As you gradually fall out of the highest mountains, there are some huge, beautiful lakes. When darkness fell, I crossed through a very small part of New Hampshire and into northeastern Massachusetts, where I spent the night.
Note: This is much farther north than I had previously traveled. The summer solstice arrived while I was in Vermont, and the sun was rising at about 5:00 to 5:10 a.m. It sets around 8:45 or 8:50 p.m. That's a LONG day!
