So I was bored today and decided to see how the Air did on a fairly steep mountain climb.
Mt Washington in New Hampshire is a 6,288 foot mountain with an 8 mile road to the summit. I was curious how much battery the climb would take.
The 8 mile trip up used 58 miles of range to finish. Of course the drive down recovered 34 miles for a net usage of 24 miles of range to travel 16 miles.
I thought that was pretty decent.
I was rewarded with a gorgeous view at the top of 100 miles. Only one other time I've been there was it that good. Often it is totally clouded over.
Temperature at the base was 60s and it was 34° at the summit. Small amounts of ice and snow up there.
