Just after the Dinner
Train we pass for the first time over the East Branch of the Pemigiwasset River on a two span trestle. Look to the left and you see the lanes of Interstate Route 93 also
crossing the river. A sharp right turn and then descend a small hill before we cross the Route 175 crossing. An "S" turn by a "Bed and Breakfast" and on
the right you get the first close-up of the "Pemi" River. After a few minutes we climb up a short hill and through the "Ledges"
which opens up for the best view of the river. This area is our best view of the Pemigewassett River and allows views of the hawks that swoop through this river area looking for prey. We sometimes view happy rafters, canoeists and tubers on their ride down the river.
Then we prepare for the next crossing of the "Pemi" via the "Swimming Hole Bridge". Youngsters
swing out on a rope attached to the top of the bridge, and drop into the river for a quick thrill. We then reach the Woodstock Crossings where the Woodstock
Station was once situated. Descending the last few miles we can see the ramps from Exit 30 of Interstate Rt 93.
