This is a crop of a zoom photo I took of Mt. Washington from the summit of South Baldface today. What are the three bright white chevron shaped things below the summit parking lots? (they didn't move)

Just a guess, but they look like roofs to me. Could be to a building or some kind of tent.

I took the liberty of posting this over on MWO's Forum. Will get back to you soon. They're not buildings, could be tents.

The webcam on top of Wildcat caught them. DP may be on the right track, last I checked it was 65 degrees and a 5 MPH wind, perfect flying weather, though I think more likely a powered ultralight flight.

I was on Adams today and saw something that looked quite like one of your white objects...it was flying north up Rt 16 when I saw it early afternoon. Not moving fast. I'd think that if it was flying directly toward you it would appear to be stationary.

I didn't have binoculars, so I don't know exactly what kind of craft it was.

I was up there around 10 or 10:30 and didn't take note of anything out of the ordinary.
 
Not Aliens....... just a few Hang gliders staging for flight. Good flying weather, but not a lot of uplift for extended cruising. Was fun to watch them cruise to landing in the Glen.
