On a pretty New Hampshire day, Lori and I hiked into the Eliza Adams Gorge and two miles beyond to the intersection of Seaver and Chesham roads. A nice woodlands walk with some hills and the usual rocks to hike over (and have I mentioned the bugs yet? It was still their time to feast), highlighted by the the roaring rapids and deep-valley stream below the man-made dam. With moss-velvet boulders lining the stream and sharply rising rock walls, the stream looks more Rocky Mountain-like than something one finds not too far outside sleepy New England towns. And that water was cold!
