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.]
