  • Fire in the White Mountains 61
    The original table with metric values and the original color figures have been appended to the end of this document. Correction: An error was introduced into the text at some point during production. The bottom of p. 69 states “May 1903 was extremely dry; with less than two inches of precipitation, it is the driest May and third driest month ever recorded (1893-1997) at Bethlehem, New Hampshire.” The correct precipitation for May 1903 is 0.75 cm (0.3 inches). W g E o Fire W b in the e c White Mountains m g p A Historical Perspective a Christine L. Goodale he White Mountain National Forest (WMNF) owes its existence, Tin part, to its fiery history. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, debris from unprecedented logging fueled fires across the region. This disrup- tion inflamed public ire, and concern over the potential loss of these beloved forests—and, influentially, concern by downstream manufac- turers that deforestation would dry up their river power—eventually brought about the Weeks Act in 1911. The Weeks Act authorized the federal purchase of forestland and established the WMNF. The public outrage at logging-era fires contrasts with public appreciation of the scenic side effects of some fires long past: enhanced views of and from such peaks as Chocorua, Crawford, Moat, Welch, Hale, the Sugarloaves, and the Baldfaces. On these and other mountains, forest fires cleared the low summits of view- blocking trees, and subsequent erosion washed away much of the soil that might have supported regrowth. Elsewhere, picturesque stands of paper birch owe their origin to fires from a century ago.

  • Mirror Lake Hosts a Private Seaplane Base in Tuftonboro
    Vol XXII, No. 4 A Quarterly Newsletter Published by the Tuftonboro Association Fall, 2020 Mirror Lake hosts a private seaplane base in Tuftonboro If you live on Mirror Lake you have undoubtedly seen the lovely red and white 1956 Cessna 180 amphibious float, also known as a seaplane, take off and land. T.R. Wood, a Kingswood High School graduate and his family moved to the Tuftonboro side of Mirror Lake years ago seeking a slower pace after decades on Lake Winnipesaukee. T.R. is a third-generation pilot and his near-teenage son is well on his way to becoming the fourth generation in the air. T.R. is quite proud that his son already exhibits some of the skills of older, more experienced pilots. The family has a long history with planes starting with T.R.’s grandfather who flew Consolidated PBY Catalinas during WW II as he patrolled the Atlantic and Caribbean searching for submarines. His pilot skills were also in use throughout the Korean War. Both T.R. and his father, Tom Wood, have been commercial pilots. The history of flight in popular literature began with the Wright brothers’ famous exploit on December 17, 1903 four miles south of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. Seven years later Henri Fabre piloted the first seaplane in Marseilles, France. By 1911, Glenn Curtiss, the founder of the U.S. aircraft industry, had developed the Curtiss Model D. His Model H series T.R. Wood’s fiance Alison, along with their dog Champ, are perched on the pontoon was heavily used by the British Royal Navy during of T.R.’s 1956 Cessna, which in other seasons may wear wheels or wheels with skiis.

  • Mike Ware Ridge Trail
    Trail Name: Ridge Trail Gilford NH Trail Description: Mike Ware Ridge Trail – Description This white-blazed trail, a segment of Belknap Range Trail, runs from the main parking lot at Gunstock Mountain Resort to the summit of Mt. Rowe, then continues along the ridge to the summit of Gunstock Mtn. A major relocation in 2013 moved the upper part of the trail off the Gunstock ski slopes and into the woods. The Ridge Trail (blazed white) starts 100 yards north of the Gunstock main lodge, just to the right of the Adaptive Ski Center. It runs up an access road for 0.25 mi., turns left, (marked by a white arrow and cell phone tower sign), and joins the old Try-Me Ski Trail. It takes a turn to the right at 0.3 mi., marked by another white arrow. The trail ascends steeply to reach the communications tower at 0.8 mi. Here the trail traverses the summit of Mount Rowe (elev. 1,690 ft.) and its ridge, with great views of Gunstock Ski Area and Lake Winnipesaukee. There is an Earth Scope Plate Boundary Observation/GPS Station at the top of this ridge, run by UNAVCO, NASA and NSF. The Ridge Trail continues on the rocky ridge from this point and at 1.2 mi. descends straight (marked with a white-blazed post). On the right, the Mt. Rowe Trail (blazed blue) descends to the Gilford Elementary School in Gilford Village. In 20 yds. down the Mt. Rowe Trail, the North Spur Trail (blazed orange) leaves left to traverse across the ridge to a junction with the Benjamin Weeks Trail (blazed purple).

  • Chapter 3 Tuftonboro’S Resources: Natural, Hıstorıc and Scenıc
    chapter 3 tuftonboro’s resources: natural, hıstorıc and scenıc Tuftonboro's rural scenic beauty and quiet lifestyle appeal to both residents and visitors. According to results of the 2005 Community Attitude Survey, people are concerned about losing these features. More specifically, loss of rural character was deemed one of the three most important issues facing the town in the next decade. Rural character is the combination of many elements including the natural and cultural environment, economic opportunity and civic life. This chapter describes the town’s natural setting, and the natural, historic and scenic resources. 3.1 natural settıng Tuftonboro offers a diversity of landscape features from the Ossipee Mountain range to the rolling terrain near Lower Beech Pond to the wetlands of the Great Meadow to islands in Lake Winnipesaukee.
