Mother Nature doesn't care how old you are.

 Blair Covered Bridge - Campton New Hampshire...1829 - 2011...Will be repaired.

 

 

 

         Historical Remarks: 

 

The first bridge at this location was built in 1829 at a cost of $1,000.The construction of the current bridge was brought about when a doctor trying to ford the river on horseback found the current too strong. The horse drowned, but the doctor was saved. The town voted to build a bridge immediately. A sign was posted on the bridge indicating there was a fine of five dollars for riding or driving on the bridge faster than five miles per hour. It was rebuilt by Milton Graton and his son Arnold in 1977 at a cost of $59,379. The town of Campton and the state shared the cost of the repair. The Blair Bridge is eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places.

A Beautiful Historic Covered Bridge ...Meets Tropical Storm Irene.

 

            

What a shame...I drover over this bridge a couple of days a week to get to one of the "branch" offices of our real estate company.

White Mountain NH -147 acres $232,500 with 3000 ft of Waterfrontage

 

Ellsworth Hill, Campton New Hampshire 147 Acres $232,500 ....NOW !!  $199,900 May be sold by now?!?!?!?!?.

Over 3,000 feet of Water frontage on Branch Brook and a Pond, abuts National Forest Land and offers View of the Northern Mountain range.

     

 

147+ acres of Spectacular White Mountain Panoramic Views to Franconia Notch. Beautiful Waterfalls & Pools on 3,000+ feet on West Branch Brook. The perfect large estate site or excellent development potential, offered in this 3 acre Minimum Lot size - Forest Conservation zone (town zoning).

 

If you have ever walked a hilly site in the spring, you know you have to dress for the occasion and plan on being there all day…6.4 million Square feet is what 147 acres translates to. But at a little over $1,500 / acre the options are endless.

 

Have a look at some of the photos I took, while walking the site yesterday.

Owls nest Golf course Campton NH

Loved this train trestle bridge, along the 5th hole of the Owls Nest Golf Course - enjoy the photo journey.

      This bridge is old and has served it purpose for many years,,,the train track still get it's use  by a tourist line in the spring, summer and fall...and it becomes a snowmobile corridor when winter sets in. you can travel from Lake Winnipasaukee to the Canadian boarder on this rail line.

   White Mountain golf ...nearing the last round of the season...Closing 11/14/10 and skiing will open the following week. We hate to wait for the seasons to fully change we force them. We move on to the next recreational choice offered by the White Mountains of New  Hampshire.

  Alpine Golf is not something everyone gets a chance to experience...Love the views.

  16th hole big down hill carry and hard to see the green at sunset.

I hate to admit that the dark has taken away the time to golf for another year...go out at 2 and not get 18 holes done. Sad but time marches on. Ever have the chance to play the Owls Nest Golf Course in Campton New Hampshire...I recommend it as one of the best Mountain view courses in the Northeast.
