About this city
Bartlett is a historic, recreation-centric alpine township situated deep within the rugged granite ravines of the White Mountain National Forest. Incorporated in 1790 and named to honor Josiah Bartlett, a signer of the Declaration of Independence and the state's first governor, the town developed rapidly alongside late-19th-century rail expansions. Bartlett is bordered by soaring peaks, encompassing segments of the dramatic Crawford Notch State Park, and serves globally as a premier winter ski metropolis and a launching pad for backcountry mountain wilderness treks.
