Johnsen Company of Portland. Despite these early glimmers of skiing awareness, when the sport began its ascendancy to popularity in the 1930s, the state’s likeliest venues were more distant, and public land ownership less widespread, than was the case in the neighboring states of New Hampshire and Vermont, and ski area development in those states was consequently greater.

  • Winter Breeze
    The Southeast Breeze Quarterly newsletter of the Appalachian Mountain Club, Southeastern Massachusetts Chapter Winter 2011/2012 — December, January, February View from the Chair By Jim Plouffe, Chapter Chair It‘s been one year; one year since I accepted the position as Chapter Chair for the Chapter. It is the ultimate of volunteer positions, in this type of club. While some volunteers give up a Saturday here or there and some volunteers lead a hike or a bike or a paddle, once in a while, this position, as Chapter Chair, has me running regular meetings, planning club wide events, coordinating weekend events, attending other meetings, annual dinners, retreats, and many other things that take up time. The work as a Chapter Chair goes beyond these ―time taking‖ events and includes the time it takes to prepare agendas, write articles, and collect paperwork and other less noticeable but important tasks that take place behind the scenes. I tell you this, not to pat myself on the back, because I don‘t really need the pat on the back. I enjoy doing this type of work and find it rewarding just to see that I can make a difference in my microcosm. I have told you this because last night I sat in a room with ―my‖ Executive Board and conducted a meeting that will hopefully bring this Chapter forward in the year 2012. At this meeting, I was looking around and realized that for every minute I spend planning, executing and attending my meetings and events, the people in front of me, acting in their volunteer capacity, spent an equal amount of time doing their best to try and achieve the same goals and intentions that I strive to accomplish.

  • 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.
