The reflection of the covered bridge in the lake, with the white snow as a blank canvas in front of it, was beautiful. And I really like the name of the property where it resides: Jack-o'-lantern resort. Would probably be great for a walk around during peak leaf time. New Hampshire has about 60 covered bridges and I only hit four. Gonna have to come back.

There is a sandy beach below this great bridge with lots of sand bars to walk along up the river. There are shallow spots but also a section that is really deep. The highlight is the rope swing under the bridge. There's always a line of people waiting to swing off into the water.

It reads, "The Chocorua Legend. In several versions, the legend's sequence relates the mysterious death of Chocorua's son while in the care of a settler named Campbell. Suspicious of the cause, the Pequawket chieftain took revenge on the settler's family. Then, in retaliation, Campbell killed Chocorua on the peak of the mountain now bearing the Indian's name." There is a breakdown lane where you can stop to read the sign and perhaps consider hiking to the nearby peak. [Review 18545 overall - 96 in New Hampshire - 2067 of 2022.]

We had stopped at the Notch Express south of here to see the Betty and Barney Hill display they have there. The store owner let us know if we drive north to the Indian Head Resort, we would find this roadside marker. We bought ourselves a little green alien from said establishment and drove up the road a piece. Although Betty and Barney have no memory of exactly when and where their abduction occurred, this is the spot where they stopped, got out of their car and took a close look at what they recall being a space craft. While standing near here, looking at said craft, it began to descend toward them. And that's when they 'noped' the heck out of there. Next thing they remember it's two hours and 40 miles later. Creepy. Theirs is the first official UFO abduction case and a bit of local, and international, history. A definite must for any hobbyist Ufologist.

The marker is by the side of the road in front of the Indian Head Resort. There is room to pull over and read it. It says, "On the night of September 19-20, 1961, Portsmouth, NH couple Betty and Barney Hill experienced a close encounter with an unidentified flying object and two hours of "lost" time while driving south on Rte 3 near Lincoln. They filed an official Air Force Project Blue Book report of a brightly-lit cigar-shaped craft the next day, but were not public with their story until it was leaked in the Boston Traveler in 1965. This was the first widely-reported UFO abduction report in the United States." The marker was erected in 2011 by the New Hampshire Division of Historical Resources. There is plenty of space to park to read the sign and to search around. [Review 18528 overall - 79 in New Hampshire - 2050 of 2022.]
