The resort has always aimed to attract a family-friendly audience, and a recent new high-speed quad has really improved the lift network. But Attitash faces a tough fight against the classic New England slopes of its nearby competitors, and the resort won\u2019t be perfect for everyone.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n              sqs-block-image-figure\n              intrinsic\n            \"><\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" data-stretch=\"false\" data-image=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/5e7a324590664f18b1bfea0c\/1719785250050-656WTAN7MZY3GZVX3WH2\/attitashtwomountainview.jpeg\" data-image-dimensions=\"2704x1520\" data-image-focal-point=\"0.5,0.5\" alt=\"\" data-load=\"false\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" width=\"2704\" height=\"1520\" loading=\"lazy\" data-loader=\"sqs\" class=\"lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/attitashtwomountainview-1.jpeg\"><figcaption class=\"image-caption-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"\">Attitash offers two distinct mountain areas: the Attitash side (pictured in the distance), and the Bear Peak side (from which this picture was taken).<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Size and Terrain Layout<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\">Spanning over 300 acres, Attitash is on the bigger side as far as New Hampshire ski resorts go, although it\u2019s still quite a bit smaller than the largest ski areas in other parts of the Northeast. The resort comprises two distinct mountain areas: the Attitash side and the Bear Peak side. While they are only connected by a few trails, both sides are similarly-sized and generally specialize in the same type of terrain\u2014although there are a few notable distinctions between the two.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n              sqs-block-image-figure\n              intrinsic\n            \"><\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" data-stretch=\"false\" data-image=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/5e7a324590664f18b1bfea0c\/e549c4d2-5a71-4be8-af82-3827cd874495\/attitashprogressionbeginnerarea.jpeg\" data-image-dimensions=\"2704x1520\" data-image-focal-point=\"0.5,0.5\" alt=\"\" data-load=\"false\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" width=\"2704\" height=\"1520\" loading=\"lazy\" data-loader=\"sqs\" class=\"lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/attitashprogressionbeginnerarea.jpeg\"><figcaption class=\"image-caption-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"\">Attitash\u2019s beginner terrain is somewhat limited, with most green runs existing on the Attitash side.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Beginner Terrain<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\">Despite its family-friendly atmosphere, Attitash is a somewhat middling resort for beginners. The green terrain that Attitash does have is fairly enjoyable, with a dedicated learning area off the Progression Quad on the Attitash side. But outside of this area, directly-accessible green terrain at Attitash is nearly nonexistent, with no green runs in upper-mountain areas. Just a single true green trail exists off the Kachina Triple lift on the Bear Peak side, and getting to all remaining beginner runs on Bear Peak involves going down a blue run first. <\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Beginners will not love Attitash\u2019s lift setup either, with the only lifts that directly serve green terrain being slow, fixed-grip chairs. Crossing between the two resort sides is a pain for beginners as well\u2014going from Bear Peak to the Attitash side is basically out of the question for skiers and riders of this ability level, and while going the other way around is probably doable for less-experienced guests, the route involves some really flat terrain that won\u2019t be enjoyable.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n              sqs-block-image-figure\n              intrinsic\n            \"><\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" data-stretch=\"false\" data-image=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/5e7a324590664f18b1bfea0c\/7d28c790-f152-4355-adb3-d3f1c68cb2ea\/attitashsacointermediaterun.jpeg\" data-image-dimensions=\"2704x1520\" data-image-focal-point=\"0.5,0.5\" alt=\"\" data-load=\"false\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" width=\"2704\" height=\"1520\" loading=\"lazy\" data-loader=\"sqs\" class=\"lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/attitashsacointermediaterun.jpeg\"><figcaption class=\"image-caption-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"\">With nearly 45% of its trails rated as blue, Attitash offers a wide range of intermediate groomers.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Intermediate Terrain<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\">Visitors will want to be of intermediate proficiency to truly appreciate Attitash. The resort is first and foremost an intermediate\u2019s mountain, with the vast majority of its footprint offering groomed blue cruising trails. These trails cover pretty much everything an intermediate could want from a groomer, with some trails like Wandering Skis and Saco even offering a pleasant sense of isolation that\u2019s rare among New Hampshire ski resorts. Frankly, the whole footprint of Attitash is so low-angle that with the exception of just a few of the toughest blacks, it would be hard to get into too much trouble at this ability level. A handful of gladed areas exist off the resort\u2019s blue runs, although these areas take quite a bit of snow to fill in.<\/p>\n<h3>Freestyle Terrain<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\">Freestyle enthusiasts will want to head to the Bear Peak side to access Attitash\u2019s terrain parks. The two parks are nothing to write home about, but they do feature a range of small to medium boxes and rails and small to large jumps.<\/p>\n<h3>TRAIL MAP<\/h3>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n              sqs-block-image-figure\n              intrinsic\n            \"><\/p>\n<p>          <a class=\"\n                sqs-block-image-link\n                \n          \n        \n              \" href=\"https:\/\/www.peakrankings.com\/s\/attitashtrailmap202324.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" data-stretch=\"false\" data-image=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/5e7a324590664f18b1bfea0c\/3ef4f8ce-43b4-4e85-ad01-f890eb11fddd\/attitashtrailmap202324.jpg\" data-image-dimensions=\"3783x1962\" data-image-focal-point=\"0.5,0.5\" alt=\"\" data-load=\"false\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" width=\"3783\" height=\"1962\" loading=\"lazy\" data-loader=\"sqs\" class=\"lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/attitashtrailmap202324.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>          <\/a><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Advanced and Expert Terrain<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\">The advanced experience at Attitash isn\u2019t terrible, but skiers and riders of this ability level may start to feel underwhelmed. The resort offers a decent range of groomed black runs, with some featuring consistent, wide-open fall lines and others involving modestly narrower pitches. The resort also features several ungroomed mogul runs, particularly off the upper mountain. One might argue the longest and best of these can be accessed from the top of Bear Peak. That said, Attitash lacks truly expert terrain entirely, and those looking for a serious challenge should look elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n              sqs-block-image-figure\n              intrinsic\n            \"><\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" data-stretch=\"false\" data-image=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/5e7a324590664f18b1bfea0c\/fe8a1ae8-17b2-469f-8b41-d545dfcfdd0d\/attitashmogulrun.jpg\" data-image-dimensions=\"2500x1406\" data-image-focal-point=\"0.5,0.5\" alt=\"\" data-load=\"false\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" width=\"2500\" height=\"1406\" loading=\"lazy\" data-loader=\"sqs\" class=\"lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/attitashmogulrun.jpg\"><figcaption class=\"image-caption-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"\">Attitash does have some steep mogul runs\u2014especially on the Bear Peak side\u2014but experts may be left wanting more.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Lifts and Crowd Flow<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\">In years past, the biggest distinction between the Attitash and Bear Peak sides was arguably the lift logistics. Up until 2023, the Attitash side had what might have been one of the most confoundingly designed lift setups we\u2019d ever seen, with a high-speed quad that only extended about halfway up, but the only access to the summit coming from a slow, fixed-grip triple that took over 10 minutes to ride. The Bear Peak side\u2019s much more normal setup, with a base-to-summit high-speed quad and a few slow helper lifts, made it much more desirable and resulted in significant overcrowding during peak times.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">But for the 2023-24 season, Attitash finally replaced its Summit Triple lift with the Mountaineer high-speed quad, bringing base-to-summit lift service to the Attitash-side summit for the first time\u2014and in the process, fixing this substantial lift network flaw. This new lift has made it much more desirable to spend time on the Attitash side and helped spread crowds around the two resort sides much more evenly. Attitash still does get quite crowded on weekends and holidays, especially given its proximity to Boston and available on-site lodging, but the lines on the Bear Peak side are nowhere near as bad as they used to be.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n              sqs-block-image-figure\n              intrinsic\n            \"><\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" data-stretch=\"false\" data-image=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/5e7a324590664f18b1bfea0c\/30e8e8ab-aa1b-4939-9503-4d2d1f6523dc\/attitashmountaineerliftline.jpg\" data-image-dimensions=\"2117x1191\" data-image-focal-point=\"0.5,0.5\" alt=\"\" data-load=\"false\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" width=\"2117\" height=\"1191\" loading=\"lazy\" data-loader=\"sqs\" class=\"lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/attitashmountaineerliftline.jpg\"><figcaption class=\"image-caption-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"\">The Mountaineer high-speed quad has completely revitalized the Attitash side\u2019s lift network, cutting the ride time to Attitash\u2019s summit down by half and relieving crowds on the Bear Peak side.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>On-Mountain Facilities<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\">As with many other modestly-sized ski resorts, Attitash\u2019s only real facilities are at its bases. But while they aren\u2019t the flashiest out there, the lodges at the resort are fairly nice. It is worth noting that the Attitash base area is a tad confusing with what seems like the main lodge actually being the Adventure Center, with less space and a confusing layout. The base lodge itself is tucked to the side, with little signage indicating its presence. The Bear Peak facility setup is better, with a large lodge prominently placed at the base.<\/p>\n<h3>RECOMMENDED SKIS FOR ATTITASH<\/h3>\n<hr \/>\n<p class=\"sqsrte-small\">NOTE: We may receive a small affiliate commission if you click on the below links.

The resort\u2019s small size makes its fairly easy to get around the individual Attitash and Bear Peak sides, with well-placed signs and trail maps aiding with navigation. As one might expect, getting between the two resort sides, which requires some pre-planning and involves a few flat sections, is Attitash\u2019s most complex situation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n              sqs-block-image-figure\n              intrinsic\n            \"><\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" data-stretch=\"false\" data-image=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/5e7a324590664f18b1bfea0c\/8b3ff80c-5c2d-466d-8ce5-6856e6a2cb93\/attitashadventurecenter.jpeg\" data-image-dimensions=\"2704x1520\" data-image-focal-point=\"0.5,0.5\" alt=\"\" data-load=\"false\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" width=\"2704\" height=\"1520\" loading=\"lazy\" data-loader=\"sqs\" class=\"lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/attitashadventurecenter.jpeg\"><figcaption class=\"image-caption-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"\">The massive building at the Attitash base is actually the Adventure Center, which has very little public space. The real base lodge is tucked away to the side.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Snow Totals and Resort Elevation<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\">As with many other New Hampshire resorts, Attitash does not see quite the same snow totals as the mountains in neighboring Vermont. But Attitash sits at a much lower elevation than its other central New Hampshire competitors; with a summit elevation of just 2,350 feet, the resort tops out at a similar altitude to the bases at some competing mountains. This circumstance puts Attitash in a snow shadow compared to these nearby resorts, with the mountain barely receiving 100 inches of annual snowfall in a typical season. In addition, the resort\u2019s lower elevation makes it more susceptible to rain than its higher-altitude competitors.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n              sqs-block-image-figure\n              intrinsic\n            \"><\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" data-stretch=\"false\" data-image=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/5e7a324590664f18b1bfea0c\/1c4ce5fb-c34d-4a02-a1b9-2d05b4d55248\/attitashupperptarmiganadvancedrun.jpg\" data-image-dimensions=\"2355x1324\" data-image-focal-point=\"0.5,0.5\" alt=\"\" data-load=\"false\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" width=\"2355\" height=\"1324\" loading=\"lazy\" data-loader=\"sqs\" class=\"lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/attitashupperptarmiganadvancedrun.jpg\"><figcaption class=\"image-caption-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"\">In large part due to its low elevation, Attitash\u2019s snow totals fall quite short of that of other central New Hampshire ski areas.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Snowmaking and Grooming<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\">On-mountain maintenance keeps the resort at a baseline level of resiliency, but both snowmaking and grooming operations could be better, with the resort often leaving the sides of trails ungroomed and failing to get certain runs into openable condition, leaving them closed during even the core season. These circumstances make the mountain feel more neglected than it should be. It is worth noting that snowmaking operations did see a noticeable improvement in this past season, resulting in more trails staying open compared to the previous five or so years, although grooming operations still need some work.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n              sqs-block-image-figure\n              intrinsic\n            \"><\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" data-stretch=\"false\" data-image=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/5e7a324590664f18b1bfea0c\/626ec9bb-d35c-4d2b-8a82-89fc47d54a6d\/attitashnotgroomedsign.jpg\" data-image-dimensions=\"1666x937\" data-image-focal-point=\"0.5,0.5\" alt=\"\" data-load=\"false\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" width=\"1666\" height=\"937\" loading=\"lazy\" data-loader=\"sqs\" class=\"lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/attitashnotgroomedsign.jpg\"><figcaption class=\"image-caption-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"\">Attitash\u2019s snowmaking and grooming operations could be better.

For those who only plan to ski weekdays, Attitash is also on the cheaper Northeast Midweek Pass.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Reciprocal Wildcat Access<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\">It\u2019s also worth noting that a Attitash lift ticket also gives you full access to nearby Wildcat. While Wildcat has a smaller footprint than Attitash, its significantly longer vertical drop may make it more enjoyable for advanced skiers or riders. The drive between the two mountains typically takes just under half-an-hour.<\/p>\n<h3>RECOMMENDED SNOWBOARDS FOR ATTITASH<\/h3>\n<hr \/>\n<p class=\"sqsrte-small\">NOTE: We may receive a small affiliate commission if you click on the below links.

For those who choose to make the trek from New York, the drive typically takes around six-and-a-half hours, making the journey about equivalent in length to a trip to Vermont\u2019s northernmost mountains. Attitash also sits about three-and-a-half hours from the Canadian city of Montreal.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Like many other Northeast ski resorts, there is no public transportation to and from Attitash. However, the resort offers free parking at all times, with one main lot at each base area and an overflow lot north of the Attitash side. That being said, all of these lots could use serious maintenance work, with treacherously deep potholes that might damage your car if you\u2019re not careful. The main Attitash-side lot is on the other side of a busy, active highway, and while there\u2019s technically a tunnel to cross beneath the highway and the slopes, it\u2019s a bit out of the way and not easy to find.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n              sqs-block-image-figure\n              intrinsic\n            \"><\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" data-stretch=\"false\" data-image=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/5e7a324590664f18b1bfea0c\/1e65ae70-e0bd-4c8d-812e-c194dda47dfa\/attitashparkinglotpotholes.jpeg\" data-image-dimensions=\"2704x1520\" data-image-focal-point=\"0.5,0.5\" alt=\"\" data-load=\"false\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" width=\"2704\" height=\"1520\" loading=\"lazy\" data-loader=\"sqs\" class=\"lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/attitashparkinglotpotholes.jpeg\"><figcaption class=\"image-caption-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"\">Attitash offers free parking at all times, but its lots could use some pothole repairs.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Lodging<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\">One benefit to an Attitash ski vacation is the resort\u2019s on-mountain lodging. The resort offers a variety of ski-in\/ski-out accommodations, ranging from slopeside condos to the 3-star Grand Summit Hotel at the base of Bear Peak. The more down-to-earth Attitash Mountain Village sits just across the access road from the Attitash-side base, with an indoor pool, hot tub, and skating rink. A wider range of options exist a short drive away, most notably in the town of North Conway, which is a 15-minute drive from the mountain.<\/p>\n<h3>Apr\u00e8s-ski<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\">Despite its strong on-site lodging setup, Attitash offers a limited apr\u00e8s-ski scene. The resort does have pubs in both of its base lodges, with live music events scheduled on Saturdays in February\u2014but besides that, the mountain has very little going on after the slopes close.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"\n              sqs-block-image-figure\n              intrinsic\n            \"><\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" data-stretch=\"false\" data-image=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/v1\/5e7a324590664f18b1bfea0c\/54e80d3b-7464-471b-b1da-67f36b437dc1\/attitashcondo.jpeg\" data-image-dimensions=\"2704x1520\" data-image-focal-point=\"0.5,0.5\" alt=\"\" data-load=\"false\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" width=\"2704\" height=\"1520\" loading=\"lazy\" data-loader=\"sqs\" class=\"lazyload\" data-src=\"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/attitashcondo.jpeg\"><figcaption class=\"image-caption-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"\">Attitash\u2019s available ski-in\/ski-out condos may be its biggest advantage over other nearby resorts.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Verdict<\/h2>\n<p class=\"\">So Attitash offers a decently family-friendly footprint, high-speed lifts, and convenient on-site lodging within a reasonable driving distance of Boston. But the resort doesn\u2019t really stand out in any notable way terrain-wise, and its middling snow totals put it at a disadvantage versus other New Hampshire competitors. Attitash might be worth the trip for Bostonians with an Epic Pass product looking for a ski-in\/ski-out weekend trip, but other resorts offer better snow and terrain just a slightly further distance away.<\/p>\n<h3>Pricing<\/h3>\n<p class=\"\">Attitash\u2019s lift ticket prices aren\u2019t cheap, reaching well over $100 during peak times. However, they\u2019re still quite a bit more reasonable than that of bigger resorts in Vermont. Those who want the best deal on access should be sure to secure an Epic Pass product before they\u2019re off sale in early December.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MOUNTAIN SCORE &nbsp; #24 East Coast 46 &nbsp; #103 Overall WRITTEN REVIEW MOUNTAIN STATS RECENT ARTICLES CATEGORY BREAKDOWN&nbsp; See our criteria 4 Snow: 5 Resiliency: 3 Size: 4 Terrain Diversity: 4 Challenge: 8 Lifts: 6 Crowd Flow: 3 Facilities: 6 Navigation: 3 Mountain Aesthetic: GOOD TO KNOW 1-Day Ticket: $69-$129 Pass Affiliation: Epic Pass On-site [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":904,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-902","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mountain"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/902"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=902"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/902\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":917,"href":"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/902\/revisions\/917"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/904"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=902"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=902"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/elite-escort.me\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=902"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
