Back when I was in college – and right after High School graduation I used to take my 1994 Plymouth Sundance up here and sit in the gorge on many a hot summer day, reading and learning, my feet cooling off in this little trout pool. I have a lot of good memories of the place, one of my first experiences of wilderness alone as a yougen. Read many a book here. Roads been closed since Hurricane Irene washed big sections of it out but I often ski and hike on back here. But it’s the first time in twenty years I’ve cooled down in this pool, reading a book.
