  • By Keane Southard Program Notes
    An Appalachian Trail Symphony: New England (Symphony No. 1) by Keane Southard Program notes: An Appalachian Trail Symphony: New England (Symphony No. 1) for Orchestra was begun during my hike of the 734-mile New England portion of the Appalachian Trail (June 11, 2016-August 26, 2016) and completed in late March 2017. The symphony was commissioned by a consortium of orchestras throughout New England in celebration of the 80th anniversary of the completion of the trail, which stretches over approximately 2,200 miles from Springer Mountain in Georgia to Mount Katahdin in Maine. I grew up in central Massachusetts, but a few years before I was born my father was a graduate student at Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH, through which the Appalachian Trail runs after it crosses the Connecticut River from Vermont into New Hampshire. (I actually composed the majority of the symphony in Hanover, with the AT lying only a few hundred feet away in the woods.) They loved living in New Hampshire, and when my siblings and I were young they took us on so many camping and weekend trips around New Hampshire and Vermont. These trips instilled in me a love of the outdoors and this region as well as made me aware of the AT itself. While we didn't do much hiking on those trips, I was captivated by the idea of one day hiking this legendary trail. When I later started to get serious about composing, I thought it would be wonderful to hike the trail and then write a piece of music about the experience some day.

  • Where Can I Park to Hike in Franconia Notch? Increasing Use Of
    Where Can I Park to Hike in Franconia Notch? Increasing use of trails and growing numbers of visitors in the White Mountains region can make it a challenge to find a place to park in designated parking areas, particularly within Franconia Notch State Park.

  • Easton Hazard Mitigation Plan Update 2016
    This Plan integrates the following: Hazard Mitigation Plan Update (FEMA) Community Wildfire Protection Plan (DRED) January 25, 2016 Final Plan – For Town Adoption Prepared for the Town of Easton and NH Homeland Security & Emergency Management By The Easton Planning Team With assistance from Mapping and Planning Solutions Easton Hazard Mitigation Plan Update 2016 “Plans are worthless, but planning is everything. There is a very great distinction because when you are planning for an emergency you must start with this one thing: The very definition of "emergency" is that it is unexpected, therefore it is not going to happen the way you are planning.” -Dwight D. Eisenhower HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN DEFINITIONS ”A natural hazard is a source of harm or difficulty created by a meteorological, environmental, or geological event.” “Hazard mitigation is any sustained action taken to reduce or eliminate the long-term risk to human life and property from hazards (44CFR 201.2). Hazard mitigation activities may be implemented prior to, during, or after an event. However, it has been demonstrated that hazard mitigation is most effective when based on an inclusive, comprehensive, long-term plan that is developed before a disaster occurs.” (Source: Local Mitigation Plan Review Guide, FEMA, October 1, 2011) Plan Prepared and Authored By June E.

  • Passing Through: the Allure of the White Mountains
    Passing Through: The Allure of the White Mountains The White Mountains presented nineteenth- century travelers with an American landscape: tamed and welcoming areas surrounded by raw and often terrifying wilderness. Drawn by the natural beauty of the area as well as geologic, botanical, and cultural curiosities, the wealthy began touring the area, seeking the sublime and inspiring. By the 1830s, many small-town tav- erns and rural farmers began lodging the new travelers as a way to make ends meet. Gradually, profit-minded entrepreneurs opened larger hotels with better facilities. The White Moun- tains became a mecca for the elite. The less well-to-do were able to join the elite after midcentury, thanks to the arrival of the railroad and an increase in the number of more affordable accommodations. The White Moun- tains, close to large East Coast populations, were alluringly beautiful. After the Civil War, a cascade of tourists from the lower-middle class to the upper class began choosing the moun- tains as their destination. A new style of travel developed as the middle-class tourists sought amusement and recreation in a packaged form. This group of travelers was used to working and commuting by the clock. Travel became more time-oriented, space-specific, and democratic. The speed of train travel, the increased numbers of guests, and a widening variety of accommodations opened the White Moun- tains to larger groups of people. As the nation turned its collective eyes west or focused on Passing Through: the benefits of industrialization, the White Mountains provided a nearby and increasingly accessible escape from the multiplying pressures The Allure of the White Mountains of modern life, but with urban comforts and amenities.

  • The Pemigewasset River
    WD-R&L-9 2012 The Pemigewasset River The Pemigewasset River's headwaters are in Profile Lake in New Hampshire’s Franconia Notch State Park, at the base of the famed Old Man of the Mountain. The river cascades through the park where crystal clear waterfalls and elevation drops, such as the Flume and the Basin attract thousands of visitors each year. The river eventually widens as it moves southerly along its approximately 70 mile route to its confluence in Franklin with the Winnipesaukee River thereby forming the Merrimack River. The entire river, except a 10- mile segment through Lincoln and Woodstock, is protected under the New Hampshire Rivers Management and Protection Program as of June 1991. The watershed drains approximately 1,000 square miles. As the majority of the river’s corridor is undeveloped, the natural resources of the area and river are of especially high quality. Due to these exemplary natural resources, the river was found eligible for inclusion in the federal Wild and Scenic Rivers Program. Geology The southern Pemigewasset River valley was once part of the great glacial Lake Merrimack extending north to Plymouth from Manchester. Much of the remains of that glacial lake can be found today along the Pemigewasset River. Dunes, deltas and terraces from the glacier have left sand deposits, sometimes reaching 100 feet deep, in the valley. The glacier left large outcroppings, basins, and erratics (glacial boulders), throughout the northern Pemigewasset River Valley. Gorges, characterizing the river’s name, which by Abenaki definition means “narrow and shallow swift current,” are prevalent in northern reaches as well.
