Availability information for this program
They said it couldn't be done-until they did it: built a road clear up to the summit of the highest mountain in the Northeast. It began in the 1850s with gravel, black powder and stress and strain. Horses and carriages managed to scrabble their way to the top by 1861. Then along came the automobile, and the rest is history.
