About the Lizzie Bourne Memorial
The Lizzie Bourne Memorial is a historic institution located in Jackson, New Hampshire, United States. The memorial commemorates the tragic death of Lizzie Bourne, a young woman from Kennebunk, Maine, who died from exposure near the summit of Mount Washington on September 14, 1855. Lizzie, along with her cousin Lucy Bourne and her uncle George Bourne, attempted to climb the mountain without a guide and faced a violent gale that ultimately led to her untimely death.
The memorial, originally a few rough stones, has since been replaced by a pyramid of stones topped by a slab. Lizzie's story is a poignant reminder of the dangers of Mount Washington and the importance of being prepared when exploring the great outdoors. The monument serves as a tribute to Lizzie's memory and a warning to future adventurers.
Visitors to the Lizzie Bourne Memorial can learn about the tragic events that unfolded on that fateful day and pay their respects to a young woman who lost her life in pursuit of adventure. The institution also offers insights into the history of Mount Washington and the dangers that climbers face when attempting to conquer its peak. The memorial stands as a solemn reminder of the fragility of life and the power of nature.
