How many people are on the tour? Meaning is it a small tour or pretty large?
答:
If you mean the auto road- you go up by yourself. There is only one two-way road. Stops along the way. You can follow other drivers if you want. You pay per person in your car.
We drove Needles highway & Beartooth highway on a trip last year. How is this road compared to those roads. They were a little scary, but wonderful to see views.
答:
I am not familiar with those road. But Mt Washington is very well maintaned, with several pull outs, narrow at times but drivers yield so one car xan pass. Definitely worth the trip
How is the drive and the roads leading up to the Mt. Washington auto road? We plan to take the bus up but I am concerned about the roads we will take leading to the start of the trek. Any advice is appreciated, thanks!

depends :) there are a few portions of the road which dont have pavements.. If you dont fear heights, it should be easy.. its like a 6-8 mile road.. last 2 miles is normally difficult with CLOUD formation and visibility.. Check the climate before going.

You should be able to go all the way up .. will be more windy and cold .. fall colors are awesome in mt Washington
I will be visiting the area. My friend is driving the Mt. Washington Auto Road, but I am not 100% sure I can stomach it. I am trying to get an idea how bad it is compared to the following. I have been to the Going to The Sun Road in Montana and made it through. I did the Moki Dugway and managed. I went up on Pike's Peak and lost it around the Devils Playground stretch. I did not do well with that at all. The weather did not help, because we had bad rain, but I was freaking out. Is it worse or better than Pikes Peak? I think I did better with the Going to the Sun Road because there were boundaries and the roads seemed wider. Pikes Peak did not have as much in regards to boundaries and rails.
答:
My best answer would be search Mount Washington Road on YouTube. There are a number of videos that give you a good perspective on what the trip is like. It's scary, but worth it!
