The Basin In Franconia Notch State Park
How can you turn down a sight seeing opportunity like this?
A 30 foot wide, 15 foot deep, 25,000 year old glacial pothole.
In September 1839 Henry David Thoreau wrote of the Basin
"this pothole is perhaps the most remarkable curiosity of its kind in New England."
Samuel Eastman in his 1858 White Mountain Guide called this spot
"One of the beautiful haunts of Nature, a luxurious and delicious bath fit for the ablutions of a goddess."
