I Enjoyed A Quiet Backcountry Trek Along This Remote New Hampshire Trail
There’s nothing I enjoy more than seeking out the more quiet and more remote spots to hike. Yes, the well-known higher peaks of the White Mountains are great, but as many in the hiking community know, they can also be pretty crowded. Definitely not my thing! Part of why I hike is for the peace and solitude, and fortunately, there are plenty of remote hikes in New Hampshire where you may be the only one there, such as the Grassy Brook Trail in the quiet town of Marlow.
Jenna Carroll to discuss Jennie Powers: The Woman Who Dares
WEIRS BEACH — The Lake Winnipesaukee Museum will host NH Humanities speaker Jenna Carroll on Wednesday, July 24, at 7 p.m., to discuss Jennie Powers: The Woman Who Dares. Jennie Powers took a stand against social vices in New Hampshire and Vermont in the early twentieth century. She was a humane society agent in Keene in 1903-36, and one of the first to become a deputy sheriff in New Hampshire in 1910. Powers was cited by the Boston Post newspaper in 1906 as having arrested more men than any other woman in America. As a photographic activist, she used her camera to document animal cruelty, family violence, and wide-spread poverty in New Hampshire's Monadnock region and beyond.
