mcdude Senior Member Registered: July 2002 Location: Rock Haven Lake - West Newfield, ME Posts: 5,367	This large size postcard is available at the bookstore at Mills Falls and at Amylynne's Busy Corner Store in Alton produced by http://www.skytopimages.com I especially like it because it shows all the lakes in my neighborhood (over the "NIP" in winnipesaukee) which are usually cut off of must winni maps. From left to right they are; Manning Lake in Gilmanton http://mysite.verizon.net/vze3nm2c/c...glake/id9.html Lake Eileen which is within the Hidden Valley Scout Reservation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Webster_Council Sunset Lake which straddles the Alton/Gilmanton town line and to the northeast of that; Hills Pond http://www.sunsetlakehillspond.com One can clearly see Straightback Mountain and Mt. Major to the north of Hills Pond

Oh, sure.

In the center, to the far right, is Lake Wentworth with The Nature Conservancy-owned "Stamp Act Island" in the middle of it. (Open to the public for touring by foot). Crescent Lake, an upside-down "Casper the Ghost", is just to its left.

That's "Dan Hole Pond" at the very top right. Its SE margin can be seen shored-up by one of the many craters of long-extinct volcanoes in the ancient Ossipee Mountain Range. Before the scouring by North American glaciers, Mt. Shaw is said by geologists to have been higher than Mt. Everest is today.
