Nature and Renewal: Wild River Valley & Beyond

Angebote / Angebote:

Many of us have taken the wonderful Evans Notch Road along the Maine-New Hampshire order from Gilead, Maine, through the White Mountain national Forest to Fryeburg, Maine without thinking about how different the land might have been in years past. It's now a place of beauty, with Caribou-Speckled Mountain Wilderness on the Maine side of the road, and Wild River Wilderness in New Hampshire on the other. This is the story of Wild River Valley, a magnificent wilderness in a relatively unknown valley, circumscribed by high, steep mountains. It is also the story of the valley's rogue river, Wild River, of a raging wildfire and the disappearance of an entire village community, of both land abuse and land stewardship, of ecological disaster and renewal, of nature's vulnerability and resiliency, and of people who experienced tragedy and good fortune. Amazingly, through the centuries a single mighty hemlock tree survived to be a living witness to it all.
