Nature's most colorful show, fall foilage in the White Mountains, was overtaken in the eyes of myself, and my children due to the excitement of being able to see moose and the natural beauty that the North Country offers all year round. I have been in New England for two years and this was my families’ first visit to the White Mountains. I could not believe all the different color of leaves that were found. There were yellow, red, orange, purple and yes, there were also some green leaves still on the trees. But all that was lost seeing the other sights that were provided to us in what is called “North Country.” We planned on leaving Saturday at eight A.M. The sun was shining brightly with hues of gold and red. We were planning to go to Pittsburg, New Hampshire which is about thirteen miles from the Canadian border. Along the journey we had intended to do some freshwater fishing using worms to attract trout, and to visit the Lancaster Fish Hatchery. Visiting the fish hatchery was a truly impressive experience. Seeing the various stages of rainbow, brook and brown trout, penned into raceways made us realize how majestic the trout were. A raceway is a flowing water pen that contains the trout until they have matured into the next stage of their development. Adjacent to the raceways they had a pen for a select few lunkers. These mature hand fed trout grew into mammoth specimens of the breed ranging anywhere from twenty four to thirty six inches long. From that point we journeyed onto the Lancaster Suzuki dealership to view some of winter’s toys such as snowmobiles and all terrain vehicles. Snowmobile season is fast approaching and both my husband and my father-in-law are children of the snow. We stopped to view some of the new models and styles as well as some used ones.
