Agiocochook**, home of great spirit.. 6288 feet above sea-level. A woman of ridiculous beauty and endless potential kindness.. yet.. she can turn violent in the blink of an eye, swirling up venomous anger; whipping up chaotic unworldly-energy, capable of crushing the life from your body, during which time she experiences no repercussion nor remorse. Humans are helpless in controlling her. She controls you, she has absolute power over us and she knows it. She will let you visit, but continuously reminds you that she is in complete control. It is said that to date, she has taken the lives of 137 people. She has tormented but spared literally thousands more than that. Her will is absolute and you control nothing, she controls everything!
If you walk, there is no easy way to ascend to her summit, but if she's of willing mind, she can bring you to a natural nirvana few others can provide. She can provide sights of beauty and thoughts of wonder. She can transform what was the past into what is only the now. Her strength, like her will is all captivating, complete and absolute. A great day on Agiocochook** is one of the greatest of your life!
**Agiocochook: The name given Mt. Washington before European Settlers arrived. European Darby Field claims to be the first to climb to it's summit in 1642. I believe he did so to show the natives, who worshipped Agiocochook that the Europeans were not intimidated by their gods, which helped the Eurpoeans eventually & effectively swindle the land from it's original native owners. I also believe that prior to Field, there must have been another native American(s), name(s) we will never know, who successfully climbed to the summit of Agicochook... And still others, also names we will never know, who died trying. So when you think of the 137 climbers who gave their lives to the mountain, pause and give a nod to the Agicochook unknowns.
