Kancamagus, Crawford Notch & Franconia Notch, New Hampshire
Trip on Kancamagus Scenic Road, and Crawford Notch & Franconia Notch
Bemis Brook in Crawford Notch State Park,NH
Driving the Kancamagus Highway, New Hampshire (NH Route 112)
In October 2014 we travelled to the United States and visited all 6 New England states primarily to see the Fall Colours. Following a rather damp 2 night stay in North Conway, New Hampshire, we joined Route 112 in Conway Village and headed west through the White Mountain National Forest with occasional glimpses of the Swift River on our right.
We filmed the first part of the journey using a Kaiser Baas R1 Car Camera attached to the wind-screen.
I forgot to change the date stamp on the camera which is 5 hours in advance being still on UK time!
The music is the 2nd movement of Antonin Dvorak’s Symphony No.9 “From the New World” and is taken from my Deutsche Grammophon 1983 CD recording of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Lorin Maazel.
This is also my very first YouTube upload so please excuse any ‘wobbles’!

Jackson N.H. To North Conway, Evening Drive
Driving the evening after Nor'easter Stella March 2017 from our cabin in Jackson, New Hampshire which is north of North Conway thru the town of North Conway, N.H. ending at Settlers Green.
North Conway is a census-designated place (CDP) in eastern Carroll County, New Hampshire, United States. The population was 2,349 at the 2010 census. A year-round resort area, North Conway is the largest village within the town of Conway, which is bounded on the east by the Maine state line. The White Mountain National Forest is to the west and north. Conway is home to Cathedral Ledge (popular with climbers), Echo Lake State Park, and Mount Cranmore. North Conway is known for its large number of outlet shops.
Chartered in 1765 by Colonial Governor Benning Wentworth, the town is named for Henry Seymour Conway, ambitious son of a prominent English family, who was elected to the House of Commons at age twenty, fought at Culloden, and became Secretary of State. Early settlers called the area Pequawket (known colloquially as Pigwacket), adopting the name of the Abenaki Indian village which stretched down the Saco River to its stockaded center at Fryeburg, Maine.
North Conway is located in the White Mountains, with Mount Washington located to the northwest. The rugged terrain became popular in the 19th century with artists. Their paintings were known collectively as White Mountain art, which in turn attracted tourists to the area, particularly after the Portsmouth, Great Falls & Conway Railroad extended service in 1872 to North Conway. In 1874, the line built a Second Empire depot, designed by Nathaniel J. Bradlee. In 1932, snow trains began carrying enthusiasts to the birthplace of American skiing, as North Conway is known.
Increasing automobile travel brought the decline of trains. The railroad, then part of the Boston & Maine, abandoned passenger service to the area in 1961, and freight service in 1972. Subsequently, the Conway Scenic Railroad was established. Today, the line offers visitors a tour of the region, including Crawford Notch. The station is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
In the late 1980s, the White Mountain Airport closed and was redeveloped as a large outlet mall called Settlers' Green Outlet Village. Continued growth through the 1990s and 2000s in North Conway and the villages nearby made Conway the most populous community in Carroll County. Traffic congestion led to an overhaul of the road system, including widening Route 16 through North Conway village and constructing a road parallel to Route 16 to allow traffic to move between Redstone and Intervale uninterrupted. A bypass of the area is being developed.
North Conway remains a popular destination due to its shopping, recreation, and attractions.

The #WhiteMountains are a mountain range covering about a quarter of the state of #NewHampshire and a small portion of #western #Maine in the #United States.
The range is heavily visited due to its proximity to #Boston and, to a lesser extent, New York City and #Montreal.Most of the area is public land, including the #WhiteMountain National #Forest and a number of state parks.
Its most famous mountain is #6,288-foot (1,917 m) #MountWashington, which is the #highest #peak in the #Northeastern #U.S.The White Mountains are a #physiographic section of the larger New England province, which in turn is part of the larger #Appalachian #physiographic division.
The magma #intrusions forming the #White #Mountains today were created 124 to 100 million years ago as the #North #American Plate moved westward over the #New #England #hotspot.The #Mount #Washington #Auto #Road and the #historic #Mount #Washington Cog Railway ascend the range's highest peak.

Hike - Tuckerman Ravine Trail, Mount Washington, New Hampshire - July 16, 2019
A quick trip up the Tuckerman Ravine Trail on Mount Washington. The Severe Weather App on our phones warned of an incoming thunder storm from the west, and since we didn't plan or pack for bad weather, we backed off before reaching our destination.
Quick Winter Hikes: Arethusa Falls
The hike up to Arethusa Falls is an excellent mid-winter escape and also a topnotch visual treat. It’s located in scenic Crawford Notch State Park and the trailhead is right off of off Route 302, a ½ mile south of Dry River Campground. The hike is relatively short & doable in half a day. Arethusa Falls is just as impressive in the winter as it is in the summer. In the winter, you might catch a glimpse of some ice climbers tediously ascending its frozen slopes.

White Mountains
Bartlett, New Hampshire
Pinkham Notch
Mt. Washington , N.H.
The White Mountains are a mountain range covering about a quarter of the state of New Hampshire and a small portion of western Maine in the United States. They are part of the northern Appalachian Mountains and the most rugged mountains in New England. The range is heavily visited due to its proximity to Boston and, to a lesser extent, New York City and Montreal.
Most of the area is public land, including the White Mountain National Forest and a number of state parks. Its most famous mountain is 6,288-foot (1,917 m) Mount Washington, which is the highest peak in the Northeastern U.S. and which held the record for fastest surface wind gust (231 miles per hour (372 km/h), over 100 m/s, in 1934) in the world for 76 years. Mount Washington is part of a line of summits, the Presidential Range, that are named after U.S. presidents and other prominent Americans.
The White Mountains also include the Franconia Range, Sandwich Range, Carter-Moriah Range and Kinsman Range in New Hampshire, and the Mahoosuc Range straddling the border between it and Maine. In all, there are 48 peaks within New Hampshire as well as one (Old Speck Mountain) in Maine over 4,000 feet (1,200 m), known as the Four-thousand footers.
The Whites are known for a system of alpine huts for hikers operated by the Appalachian Mountain Club. The Appalachian Trail crosses the area from southwest to northeast.
It is not clear where the name White Mountains came from. There is no record of what Native Americans called the range, although pre-Colonial names for many individual peaks are known.[1] The name and similar ones such as White Hills or Wine Hills are found in literature from Colonial times. According to tradition, the mountains were first sighted from shipboard off the coast near the Piscataqua estuary. The highest peaks would often be snow-capped, appearing white.

Mount Washington Auto Road
Recorded September 15, 2016
The Mount Washington Auto Road an 8 mile toll road that extends from New Hampshire Route 16 in Pinkham Notch to the summit of Mount Washington in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. The road climbs 4,618 feet from an altitude of 1,527 feet at the bottom to 6,145 feet at the top, an average gradient of 11.6%. The road was completed and opened to the public in 1861. Due to its remarkable location, weather, and history, the Mount Washington Auto Road is unlike any other driving experience in the Eastern United States. A trip on Mount Washington Auto Road is a one-of-a-kind experience offering ever-changing weather extremes, panoramic views and the opportunity to pass through four distinct climate zones as you climb to the highest peak in the Northeast. This video is one complete roundtrip of the scenic journey.
