This waterfall is by the roadside in Colebrook, NH. I’d seen it last fall when we had a drought, and it was not very impressive. I decided to return last weekend hoping it would still be frozen. This part of the state is so far north that it was still winter with a foot or more of snow in places and snowmobiles running on trails.
For a better view, this short video shows the water rushing over the frozen waterfall.
Beaver Brook Falls was a favorite picnic spot for my family when we lived in Colebrook–although we never attempted it in the winter!
I can see why you didn’t try it in winter. I want to go back when there are some leaves on the trees and the water is flowing.
The falls are splendid in the summer. My husband and I climb up to the top when we go now. (My parents didn’t let my brother and me climb to the top, too risky!)
I would not have tried that last weekend. But it sounds like fun in the summertime.
It is, although the ground around the falls is very eroded, lots of pulling oneself up on tree roots!
LOL I love your “it is so far north” yes, places are more to the north – here, all that snow is melting and causing big puddle/ponds in people’s yards, hopefully the thaw will be gentle and not thaw too quickly, would prefer the snow to evaporate.. I don’t see foot prints, so you behaved and didn’t try to climb the falls =^_^=
Oh, I would have been soaked climbing thos falls. It was enough that I trudged to that spot in shin depps snow. I hope your snow gently melts away.
There is impatience in the water that forces its way through the ice, winter is no longer sleeping, spring is coming.
Yes, we hope it will reach there soon. Thank you.
Hi Chris! Very cool to see the water flowing over the ice. Looks like Spring might be coming…!
Happy Sunday Chris!
