  • 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.

    Blair Woodland Natural Area Trail Guide First Edition, 2005 1 Campton Conservation Commission Welcome to the Blair Woodland Natural Area The Blair Woodland Natural Area was given as a gift to the Town of Campton in 2002 to be kept as a natural area for wildlife and the general public for “low impact” uses such as nature study and enjoyment while walking, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, picnicking, or fishing. The 17-acre natural area is maintained by the Campton Conservation Commission and includes several wetland areas, a regenerated pasture, roughly 1,000 feet of riparian habitat, and mixed hardwood/coniferous forest habitat. The natural area also features aspects of Campton’s rich historical legacy. To protect the vegetation and minimize disturbance to wildlife, we ask that you observe the following guidelines: 1. Please stay on the trails. 2. Please access the forest only near the kiosk along Route 3. 3. Foot travel is welcome, but bicycles, motorized vehicles, and horses are prohibited. 4. Please practice low-impact, day use activities; do not disturb plants, animals, or rocks, and pack out any trash. 5. Hunting, trapping, camping, and fires are prohibited. 6. Dogs must be leashed at all times. Scientific research is encouraged with prior approval by the Campton Conservation Commission.

The chase ended when Maine State Police forced the vehicle to stop. Along the way, the teen drove through a back yard, crashed a fence, struck two vehicles and managed to avoid three sets of spike mats. Berlin Police Capt. Jeff Lemoine said police received a call at 4:39 p.m. on July 5 that a 2001 Chevrolet pickup truck, belonging to Steven Bolduc of Dummer, had been stolen from the convenience store lot at 120 East Mason St. The name of the suspect is being withheld because she is a minor. According to a release from Maine State Police, the truck was spotted early Monday evening traveling east through a construc- tion zone on Route 2 in Bethel, Maine, where it struck a barrier and another vehicle.

  • The Civilian Conservation Corps and New England Skiing
    Winter Work: The CCC and New England Skiing Chronology By Jeff Leich, New England Ski Museum 1927: "When volunteer parties of Appalachian MC skiers, with axes and brush hooks in 1927 began chopping a ski trail over Barrett and Temple mountains in the Wapack range 50 miles northwest of Boston, we doubt if a single mile of downhill ski trail had been constructed (as such) or was even projected, anywhere on this continent. Twenty miles of trail were completed in the Wapack region before the idea spread further northward in New Hampshire, first to the Belknaps in 1931, and then in 1932 to Franconia Notch, NH and also into the edge of the Adirondacks at North Creek, NY." Ski Bulletin, January 25, 1935, page 5. 1932: "By 1932 more than 5 million young men were unemployed, and World War I veterans in huge numbers were also without jobs. These men roamed the coutnry looking for work, went on the welfare rolls, or turned to crime. Millions of acres of farm land were being eroded. Millions more were being threatened by fire or by indiscriminate timber harvesting. Recreational opportunities were being lost because of budget and personnel problems." Stan Cohen, The Tree Army: A Pictorial History of the Civilian Conservation Corps, 1933-1942, Pictorial Histories Publishing, Missoula, 1980, page 6. June 5, 1932: "Each fall I have had the desire to open up some of the old roads on the Cat for ski runs and hope to this fall. Every fall we have been so busy on some detail that it has thrown us off the work.
