CROP.
KUDOS TO MY CO-ANCHOR ANTHONY EVERETT HE TOOK ON MOU WASHINGTON THE OLD-FASHIONED WAY STAYING IN A BUNK BED.
HIKING ABOVE THE TREE LINE FACING.
COMBAT, UNPREDICTABLE WEATHER ONLY ONE WAY OUT AND IT’S HIKING.
BUT THAT’S NOT HOW I ROLL.
THIS IS MY IDEA OF TACKLING MOUNT WASHINGTON THE OMNI MOUNT WASHINGTON RESORT OFFERS A RETREAT FOR THE NOT INTERRUPTING IT PERSON LIKE ME LESS THAN THREE HOURS FROM BOSTON
SURROUNDED BY THE WHITE MOUNTAIN NATIONAL FOREST.
IT’S A THROWBACK TO THE GRAND STYLE OF TRAVEL.
WE WERE THE LAST OF THE GRAND HOTEL.
TO BE BUILT IN THE WHITE MOUNTAINS OF NEW HAMPSHIRE DESIGNATED A NATIONAL HISTORIC LANDMARK IN 1986 THE OMNI MOUNT WASHINGTON RESORT BUILT IN 1902 IS ONE OF THE OLDEST AND LAST
STANDING GRAND HOTELS IN NEW ENGLAND THE RESORT MAKES UP MOST OF THE TOWN OF BRETTON WOODS WITH THE EXCEPTION OF AN INDEPENDENTLY OWNED GAS STATION AND MOUNTAIN SHOP JOSEPH AND
CAROLINE STICKNEY DEVELOPED A RESORT AT THE TURN OF THE CENTURY.
ALTHOUGH JOSEPH DIED SHORTLY AFTER THE HOTEL WAS BUILT.
CAROLINE RAN THE OPERATION UNTIL HER DEATH IN 1936 HER LONGTIME RESIDENTS ROOM 314 IS AVAILABLE TO BOOK AND SOME SAY HER PRESENCE CAN STILL BE FELT.
I ALWAYS LIKE TO SAY IT’S SUCH A LOVELY PLACE.
WHY WOULD ANYONE EVER WANT TO LEAVE THIS GOLD ROOM WAS THE SITE OF THE BRETTON WOODS MONETARY CONFERENCE OF 1944, WHICH ESTABLISHED THE WORLD BANK AND THE INTERNATIONAL MONETARY
FUND.
THAT’S WHAT REALLY PUT US ON THE MAP WORLDWIDE 44 NATIONS ARE MORE.
THE WORLD CAME TO THIS LOCATION TO PLOT THE ECONOMIC RECOVERY OF EUROPE AFTER WORLD WAR TWO.
THEY WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY HAD A THE FINANCIAL MEANS TO REBUILD EUROPE AND ASIA AFTER THE WAR TODAY.
IT’S A FAVORITE STOPPING PLACE FOR CAMPAIGNING PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES ON SITE.
THERE’S NO SHORTAGE OF THINGS TO DO FROM MEETING NEW FRIENDS.
YOU’RE A BIG GUY, AREN’T YOU JUST ZIP LINING A RIDE ON THE RESORT’S NEW EIGHT-PASSENGER GONDOLA THE ONLY ONE OF ITS SIZE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE.
IS QUITE PLEASANT UP TOP WE MEET UP WITH GUIDE KYLE HILDEN BRAND RIGHT AND DO THIS THIS BEING HEAD OUT ON AN ATV FOR AN OFF-ROAD ADVENTURE.
WE’RE CHECKING OUT THE HIGHER SUMMITS OF THE BRETTON WOODS.
WE’RE THREE PEAKS THAT MAKE UP BRETTON WOODS, SO WE HAVE STICKNEY OSCAR AND MELT GOLD.
WE ARE ON OSCAR RIGHT NOW.
WE HAVE GREAT VIEWS OF MOUNT WASHINGTON.
WE KEEP OUR EYES OUT FOR THE WILDLIFE.
YOU MIGHT SEE A MOOSE.
YOU MIGHT SEE A BEAR NO SIGHTINGS YET.
PERHAPS BETTER LUCK ON FOOT THE WHITE MOUNTAINS HAVE A TON OF HIKING TRAILS AT EVERY LEVEL TO EXPLORE.
THIS IS AMAZING.
LOOK AT ALL OF THIS COLORS AND COLORS FOR MILES AND MILES THAT GET THE HOTEL TAKE A DIP IN THE POOL BREAK A SWEAT IN THE FITNESS CENTER OR BREATHE IN THE SCENT OF EUCALYPTUS AT THE
RESORT’S 25,000 SQUARE FOOT SPA.
OUR GUESTS COME TO THIS AREA TO RECONNECT WITH NATURE TO GET GROUNDED AND WE’VE INFUSED THAT INTO EVERYTHING THAT WE DO HERE AT THE SPA.
EVEN OUR PRODUCTS.
WE HAVE A SIGNATURE LINE CALLED MOUNTAIN MIST.
IT USES LOCAL BOTANICALS INCLUDING CANDY TOPPED, WHICH IS ONLY FOUND ON TOP OF MOUNT WASHINGTON RELAXING ONE OF THE THREE LOUNGES WHY WAITING TO INDULGE IN ONE OF THE SPOTS MANY
TREATMENT OPTIONS THE MOUNT WASHINGTON SIGNATURE BODY RITUAL IS ONE.
GOOD MINUTES.
IT INVOLVES A TRIPLE EXFOLIATION VICHY SHOWER, WHICH IS A SEVEN SHOWER HEADS ABOVE THE WHITE TABLE THAT’S USED THROUGHOUT THE EXFOLIATION AND THEN YOU MOVE INTO OUR SWISS SHOWER AND THEN
YOU COME BACK TO A BEAUTIFUL TRY TABLE THAT WE ARE FINISHED WITH A HYDRATION USING OUR MOUNTAIN MIST LOTION.
ALSO ON PROPERTY 14 RESTAURANTS.
I LIKE TO TELL EVERYBODY WHERE OUR OWN LITTLE CITY IS WE HAVE A RESTAURANT FOR PRETTY MUCH.
ONE INCLUDING CULINARY STUDENTS IN 2016 EXECUTIVE SOUS CHEF JOSEPH MED XIA DEVELOPED THE BRETTON WOODS CULINARY ACADEMY.
WE’VE C1 REAR OF -- THEY GET THREE YEARS OF WORK EXPERIENCE.
THEY TAKE CLASSES.
WE TEACH CLASSES.
AT THE END, THEY ARE GRADUATING, HOPEFULLY TAKING ONE OF THOSE HIGHER ROLES IN THE KITCHEN.
>> I’VE LEARNED SO MUCH.
WHEN I FIRST GOT HERE, I STRUGGLED WITH A FEW THINGS.
THROUGHOUT MY TWO YEARS, I HAVE REALLY BETTERED MYSELF AND A LOT OF THOSE SKILLS.
>> ONE OF THOSE THINGS I’VE LEARNED IS HOW TO MAKE A TERRINE.
ADD LENTILS, HAVE MANGO SALSA, DO A LAYER OF EACH ONE OF THEM.
THEN THE MANGO SALSA, THEN THE SHRIMP.
THEN YOU DO TH GELATIN.
YOU FOLDED IT IN, BUT THE TERRAIN TOPPING ON, PUT IT IN THE FRIDGE AND LET IT SIT FOR 24 HOURS.
SHAYNA: I WOULD SAY SO.
WHILE DONE.
>> THANK YOU.
SHAYNA: TAKE YOUR PICK.
THIS OR THIS.
EITHER WAY, THE MOUNT WASHINGTON EXPERIENCE IS A MEMORABLE ONE.
ANTHONY: T HOTEL’S APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAM IS A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY FOR FUTURE CHEFS TO TRAIN WITHIN A HIGHLY-RESPECTED FOOD OPERATION.
THEY LEARN FROM THE PROFESSIONALS ON STAFF AND RECEIVE AN ASSOCIATE’S DEGREE IN CULINARY ARTS.
AND THE RESORT’S FAMOUS COVERED VERANDA YOU SAW AT THE BEGINNI OF THE PIECE?
AT MORE THAN 900-FEET, IT IS THE LONGEST IN NEW ENGLAND UP NEXT, MAINTAINING A CENTURY-OLD HOTEL TAKES SPECIAL THOUGHT AND
