Welcome to the Sounds Like a Search and Rescue Podcast! Also known as SLASR. Join an experienced search and rescue volunteer and his friend as they discuss all things related to hiking and search and rescue in the White Mountains of New Hampshire.

This week we are joined by Charlie Buterbaugh, Director of Communications for the Mount Washington Observatory. The Observatory is a private, nonprofit, member-supported institution with a mission to advance understanding of the natural systems that create Earth’s weather and climate. It serves this mission by maintaining a weather station on the summit of Mount Washington, performing weather and climate research, conducting innovative science education programs, and interpreting the heritage of the Mount Washington region. Charlie will give us some background about the Observatory’s annual Seek the Peak fundraiser, the operations behind the observatory, details about the upcoming summit opening and more! In addition to Charlie sitting in, Stomp has pulled even more info about places and features in and around Waterville Valley that you don’t know about but will not have to check out. All this plus, hikes updates from Black mountain and Timber Camp, and recent search and rescue news including rescues in and around Mount Moosilauke and Mount Passaconaway
