Wonalancet Out Door Club “Caring for the Sandwich Range Since 1892”

By Barbara Neville Wilson Photos courtesy Wonalancet Out Door Club Take a look at the tagline of the Wonalancet Out Door Club. It doesn’t say the Club is “Maintaining the Sandwich Range” or “Supervising” it. No, the carefully chosen word is “Caring,” and my dictionary says “caring” means “oversight with a view to protection, preservation or guidance.” In its incorporation papers, the Wonalancet Out Door Club (WODC) proclaims its mission to provide and care for “paths, trails and other facilities for persons visiting the White Mountain National Forest and other mountain and forest lands...” to promote conservation and laws of protection, as well as communication and education for land owners and the public.

Made up of more than 100 members, many of whom have no other tie to one another but a desire to let the public have natural use of the Sandwich Mountains, the WODC includes year round residents of the Tamworth area, second home owners, and others who have grown a kinship with the trails through the years.

Wonalancet is an unincorporated village situated in the four towns of Tamworth, Sandwich, Albany and Waterville Valley. It became a beloved summer destination in the late 19th century, and hiking became a favorite activity of the tourists. Club member Doug McVicar explained in the April 2016 WODC newsletter, “In the early 1890s, inns were blooming all over Wonalancet. They offered city folks an agricultural setting, farm-fresh food, and, of course, mountain air and scenery.

Mountain air and scenery, yes, plenty of it. But actual mountain climbing… not so much. The problem was there weren’t any trails. To build the extensive and varied trail system we enjoy today took years of labor…

“Mount Whiteface looks so inviting—and so close—from the Intervale, but in those days anyone who wanted to go there was facing a minimum trek of eight miles, 16 miles round trip…By 1895, though, local innkeeper Thomas S. Wiggin was leading hiking parties up a new route that he discovered, which cut the distance from Wonalancet to the summit by half…”

Trail crew clearing the Sleeper Trail after an incredibly dense blow down in 2013: Fred Lavigne, David White, Tyler Keniston, Dave Giampietro and Doug McVicar, (photo courtesy Doug McVicar).

Immediately upon its opening, however, it was disparaged as a “Fire Escape,” and declared too hard. Soon an alternative route, the Blueberry Ledge Trail, was cut into the forest.

Interestingly, more than a century later, despite the universal dislike of it, the Tom Wiggin Trail is still on the map and cared for. The Club provides it a badge of shame, however. “Tom Wiggin Trail: Not Recommended/ Steep and Loose” states the sign at its trailhead.

Since the use of any motorized transportation or tools is prohibited in any Wilderness area, the WODC performs trail maintenance in the Sandwich Range Wilderness Area with hand tools only. Pictures on the group’s website (www.wodc.org) show men and women working and posing with big-toothed, cross-cut saws longer than they are tall. Chain saws are permitted and used by WODC in the White Mountain National Forest outside of the Wilderness.

The WODC partnered with the U. S. Forest Service on a new project in the 1970s: the White Mountain National Forest Adopt-A-Trail program.

Individuals and groups committed to maintaining particular WODC trails.

Today, it is these adopters who do much of the maintenance on the Club’s trail system.

Although we casual hikers may take clear, safe trails for granted, in truth, an unmaintained trail is not only hazardous to hikers, but it also endangers the surrounding environment. When hikers come across a fallen tree or too much

ith Entertain In St yle W re! u it n r u F d o o w n r a B e g Vinta

mud, they often create a new path of lesser resistance and wreck the landscape, cause erosion and harm vegetation and wildlife habitat.

As hiking’s popularity has grown and trail use increased, the WODC, the U.S. Forest Service and others have sought to reduce wear and tear by creating the Sandwich Range Conservation Association cooperative trail crew.

The crew works on several projects in the area throughout the summer with at least two weeks spent on a specific WODC project. While WODC volunteers often clock a thousand or more hours of trail maintenance each year, demand has increased in recent summers to the point that an 11-week full-time trail crew has also been hired and managed by WODC volunteers.

Certainly the views are gorgeous,

and fresh air is bracing, but what makes this group of ordinary people take such time and effort on trails they may use just once a year when they perform trail maintenance? For some it’s the actual act of using near-forgotten tools like axes and root mattocks, and crosscut saws. For others, it’s the chance to tame nature, if just for a season. For many, though, it’s the enjoyment they take from seeing others’ joy in nature.

In the group’s April newsletter, Denney Morton talked about the favorite Brook Trail. “I remember bringing 25 high school students on the Brook Path…to rescue and reset the bridge. There is nothing quite as satisfying as a chore which needs 25 sets of arms and backs, and gets done really fast, followed by a mass splash...

“I remember new Afghan refugee friends who came over from Portland, conservatively dressed in head scarves and full length robes tying up their dresses and pants so their seven children could romp in the stream, and the oldest son cradling the crystal clear water in his hands, telling me, ‘This is like our stream in Jalalabad!’”

Truly, members of the Wonalancet Out Door Club find truth in soil conservationist Hugh Hammond Bennett’s words, “Take care of the land, and the land will take care of you.”

The WODC sponsors five group trail work days each year. The next will be on National Public Lands Day, Saturday, September 24. For more information, contact WODC Trails Chair Jack Waldron at 603-323-8913, jackw@g4com.com or Fred at 603284-6919.

Naturally Curious - A Naturalist’s Journey Tin Mountain to Host Author & Naturalist Mary Holland Tin Mountain Conservation Center in Albany is pleased to present author and naturalist Mary Holland giving a talk titled Naturally Curious - A Naturalists Journey Through 12 Months of the Year on Saturday, Sept 17 at 7 pm.

Holland, an acclaimed naturalist, will take you on a visual journey through the 12 months of the year, as she highlights the natural events that take place during the different seasons in New England in a Powerpoint presentation.

From the call of spring peepers in March to the migration of broad-winged hawks in the fall, Naturally Curious introduces audiences of all ages to the natural events that occur on an annual basis. This interactive presentation includes images and information about amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals, insects and spiders, and plants.

A substantial natural history collection consisting of skins, skulls,

scat, feathers, nests and many more animal artifacts accompanies this 45-minute program.

Holland is a naturalist, wildlife photographer, columnist and author residing in Hartland, Vermont. Her work in environmental education includes directing the state-wide Environmental Learning for the Future (ELF) program for the Vermont Institute of Natural Science (VINS) for eight years, working as a resource naturalist for the Massachusetts Audubon Society, designing and presenting her own hands-on KneeHigh Nature Programs for libraries and elementary schools throughout Vermont and compiling Vermont’s Rare Bird Alert for five years for the Vermont Center for Ecostudies.

Mary currently photographs and writes for various publications, and has a natural history blog on which she posts a photograph and accompanying information five days a week at www.

The 1932 Air Speed World Record Got Started Right Here Story and photos by Barbara Neville Wilson Take a few minutes. Sit back in a chair, relax, and imagine yourself as one of them, one of the 500 or so residents of Madison, NH in September of 1932.

You’re in the middle of the worst financial times ever. There were far fewer summer tourists in Silver Lake this summer than in the good times of the 1920s; the lead mine hasn’t operated in years; and the back-breaking work of farming and surviving winter isn’t getting much easier as the years go on.

There is no television, certainly no Internet, and news doesn’t always arrive quickly, but word does finally reach you: Major James H. [Jimmy] Doolittle, the dashing-est pilot in the world, has set a new speed record, 296 mph at the National Air Race in Cleveland, Ohio. He took the prize in an unlikely looking, snub-nosed, barrel-shaped plane called the R-1 built by the Granville Brothers Aircraft company. You hear people say there were some scary moments during the race, moments when more than 50,000 spectators were on tenterhooks, as they watched the competing planes dip and lean, jockeying for position in the 10lap closed course race.

But facts are facts. Jimmy Doolittle has broken the record, and, perhaps best of all, he broke it in a plane that got its start right in your hometown of Madison, NH. Yes, in a few days you’ll see front page headlines from The Springfield [MA] Union, “Doolittle Wins Thompson Trophy Race…Gee Bee Ship Wins Classic for Second Consecutive Year…Springfield Again Takes Highest Honors in America’s Chief Air Speed Event,” but you know that though Springfield has a legitimate claim on Gee Bee airplanes, none of this would have happened if it weren’t for Madison. It all started right here on

Maple Grove Road where Will and Bell Granville raised their seven children.

The first of those children, born just 31 years before his plane took the world record, is Zantford. He’s known to everyone around as “Granny,” and not because of any elderly attributes.

No, sir. He was a boy with lots of curiosity and energy, too. He’s the one who got the Granville boys started with airplanes in the first place, after he learned the value of hard work on the family farm, graduated eighth grade from the Madison School, invented a mechanical adding machine and inquired about patenting it when he was 15, worked with a traveling saw mill, and automated a local lead mine that produced bullets for battle in World War I. Granny wasn’t the only clever son, though. You probably aren’t surprised to hear that all the Granville boys had a hand in developing such a crackerjack contraption. They’re all inventive.

Remember the doll carriage Mark made for littlest sister Gladys’ fifth birthday? Were you a little jealous when Tom saved his sisters hours of labor when he built that machine to cut beans to length for canning? And that water wheel Ed made for the brook

Get A Move On

was a pretty thing, wasn’t it?

Now grown up, Zantford is the designer and supervisor, Robert is the business manager, Mark is in charge of engines, Edward, the welder, and Thomas, the master woodworker.

It’s not just because they’re Granvilles, though. There sure are some good teachers up to the Madison School. Of course, most all children are smart, but it’s the Jones’ boys, Tom and Hiram, and three others from Madison who Granny asked to join them at Granville Brothers Aircraft in Massachusetts. People say the Madison boys were just as involved as anyone else in the design and crafting of the R-1 Jimmy Doolittle just beat the record with.

Take a minute to wonder: here the Granville brothers have built a plane that breaks the world record, and they only got an eighth grade education.

The girls, Pearle and Gladys, are both getting university degrees. Isn’t that something?

It’s kind of an interesting story how the boys and Jimmy Doolittle got together. You may have heard somewhere that the Granville Brothers did really well at the 1931 National Air Races in Cleveland. It’s a nine-day contest, you know. They took 11 prizes in nine events with three different models of their aircraft flown by four pilots, two of them women. (You might wonder if that’s Pearle and Gladys’ influence there.) In some races, Gee Bee planes flew against each other and both took awards. Altogether, of the 11 prizes won by Gee Bee planes, eight were for first place. Isn’t that something?

Ever since 1922, when he was the first to fly coast to coast, Major Doolittle has been traveling the country, capturing flying accolades. 1931 was his year to win the cross-country Bendix Cup race, but this year that victory was trumped by Jimmy Haizlip. Doolittle then set his sights on the Thompson Trophy prize, but in a fit of bad luck, the Laird Super Solution he was flying suffered mechanical failure and had to be grounded when a forced landing caused damage irreparable before the flying of the Thompson.

Or was it a fit of good luck for him?

In sort of an interesting coincidence, Russell Boardman, the Granville

Life on the Volcanic Edge

By Barbara Neville Wilson

Moultonboro claims Olympians.

Ossipee? The first snowmobile. Sandwich: birth of the League of NH Craftsmen. And Wolfeboro? The oldest summer resort in America.

But for years the most universally prominent signifier for the region has been largely ignored. The Ossipee Mountain Range has been taken for granted, hardly populated, admired for its nature, but mostly unrecognized for its properties unique in the world.

You have probably heard people rave about the views from Castle in the Clouds, the hilltop estate created by 20th century millionaire Thomas Gustave Plant. Its 5,381 acres, now managed by the Lakes Region Conservation Trust, feature 28 miles of hiking trails, many through areas with natural stone formations that look like a master stonemason carved them. And you may be aware that the private auto speedway, Club Motorsports, was chosen to offer 250-ft. of elevation change and spectacular views on its course slated to open in Tamworth this fall. You may be intrigued by the ski history of Mount Whittier whose tramway used to cross Route 16 in West Ossipee, or the Ossipee Ski Area tucked in Moultonboro.

Perhaps you’ve heard legends that no depth can be recorded in the subterranean passageways of Tuftonboro’s Dan Hole Pond.

What do all these local features have in common? They exist because of the

Ossipee ring-dike photo courtesy of Ossipee.org. unique geological formation of the Ossipee Mountains, a range 40 miles around, nine miles across, of 40,000 largely uninhabited acres. Rising to an elevation of 2,975 feet at Mount Shaw, and sinking to a depth of 130-ft. in Dan Hole Pond, the area is accessed by only three roads, none of which crosses the Range diameter. The Range feeds into watersheds of Lake Winnipesaukee, the Bearcamp River and Ossipee Lake, which in turn feed other watersheds

and on to the sea. It gives refuge to wildlife and supports a vast and valuable eco-system.

A near-perfect circle of mountains, the Ossipees are renowned among geologists for being, perhaps, the earth’s best example of a ring dike created, in layman’s terms, when an ancient volcano sank. Scientists hypothesize that 100,000,000 years ago, a mountain loomed over the central New Hampshire landscape. Resembling Mt. Fuji or Mt. Vesuvius, it rose 10,000 or more feet above sea level. When tectonic plates shifted, hot magma under the earth’s surface sought an outlet, and the mountain blew its top, not once, but three times. In the second eruption the ring dike was formed.

MaryAnn McGarry of NH’s Plymouth State University records in the online Volcanoes in New Hampshire, “One hundred million years ago, there was a fracture in the volcano and an eruption occurred, forcing molten magma to the surface. As the magma emerged, circular sections collapsed into the empty magma chamber. The molten magma cooled forming the type of igneous rock called Conway granite.

The second eruption took place around ten million years after the first eruption.

Magma was forced up along the edges of the earlier plug, ringing the plug with more eruptions. Dikes of molten magma intruded the earlier Conway granite, and formed the ring-dike that

is seen today. This ring-dike is famous with geologists world-wide due to its almost perfect completeness.”

You can still see evidence of the volcanic activity at Dan Hole Pond on the Ossipee/Tuftonboro line and Conner Pond in Ossipee. Deep water ponds, they are what’s left of gas vents on the volcano. Legend has long held that Dan Hole, particularly, is marked by labyrinthine passages on the pond bottom that cannot be negotiated by even the most seasoned divers, but modern bathymetry (the measure of water depth) has determined a final depth of 130 ft.

Other legends once told at Camp Sentinel, one of two camps on the shore of Dan Hole, refer to whirlpools stirred mysteriously, some so strong they held boaters captive for 15 minutes at a time. Were such occurrences due to continued electro-magnetic forces dormant in the diminished volcanic cone?

Peter Champoux, who wrote the Gaia Matrix, might think so. In his book, he contends the Ossipee Mountain Range is a stargate of immense spiritual significance.

On the other side of the mountain, partway up the Bald Knob Connector Trail off the Shannon Brook carriage road at Castle in the Clouds, are more tangible signs of the power exerted by the Ossipee Mountains. Off the trail, seemingly neatly stacked by a giant, are great columns of rock that look like they were cut by a master stone mason.

Basalt is rock created by lava flow. As the lava cools, it shrinks and cracks, most often in six-sided columns. These basalt columns were carved by naturally occurring geo-thermal forces.

The division between ring dike and caldera, or sunken mouth of the volcano, is clearly visible in two places: at Cold Brook off Route 25 in South Tamworth, and at the entrance of Canaan Valley into Dan Hole Pond in Tuftonboro.

The charm of the Ossipees has drawn visitors through the centuries, some for recreation, others, like Thomas Plant, to set down roots. Together, we live life on the edge.

To learn more about the Ossipee Ring Dike, visit the site of MaryAnn McGarry’s from Plymouth State University, “Volcanoes in New Hampshire.” “Exploring the Great Ring Dike Volcano” is a YouTube video tour of aspects of the ring dike by historian John Hartog and filmmaker Joe Bradley.

Learn about the Transcendental Movement in New England!

Join the Effingham Historical Society at the Effingham Public Library located at 30 Town House Road in Center Effingham on Friday, September 16 at 7 pm for a presentation by the Pontine Theatre entitled, “New England Utopia: Transcendental Communities.”

Staged by Co-Artistic Directors Marguerite Mathews and Greg Gathers, the program includes scenes from their original production exploring New England Transcendentalism and audience discussion centered around Ralph Waldo Emerson and the community at Concord, Massachusetts and the utopian experiments led by Bronson Alcott at Fruitlands and by George Ripley at Brook Farm.

New England Utopia explores the New England Transcendentalist movement of the 1830s and 1840s, which is often called the first American school of philosophy. The works by its disciples, Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau, are still widely read today.

In compiling the original script, the company drew exclusively from primary historical sources, including essays and poetry by the transcendentalists themselves, as well as excerpts from their personal correspondence and journal entries.

Despite failures in practical application, the ideas of the Transcendentalists continue to inspire readers and thinkers. They speak to many concerns at the forefront of current social debate: environmentalism,

industrialization and capitalism, to name but a few. The Transcendentalists celebrated the American experiment of individualism and self-reliance. They took progressive stands on women’s rights, abolition, reform, and education.

They criticized government, organized religion, laws, social institutions, and industrialization. They honored the American “state of mind” through their faith that all would be well, because humans could transcend limits and reach astonishing heights.

Since 1977, Pontine Theatre has been an active participant in the development of actor-based theatre, creating work that is engaging, innovative and original. Pontine’s work is founded on the concept that

the actor should function as a creative (rather than interpretive) artist, and that the actor dictates action (movement) as a primary tool. Co-Artistic Director, M. Marguerite Mathews and Gregory Gathers have produced over 50 original works. Creating and performing these works, Pontine has introduced their unique form of theatre to audiences throughout New England, transforming audience interest in mime, puppetry, literature, and history into enthusiasm for this distinctive synthesis of forms.

The program, which is made possible by a Humanities to Go! grant from the New Hampshire Humanities Council, is free and open the public. A questionand-answer period, refreshments, and the Effingham Historical Society

monthly business meeting will follow the presentation.

Founded in 1953, the Effingham Historical Society (EHS) seeks to furnish an opportunity for united thought, study and action in collecting and preserving articles of historic interest to the Town of Effingham; to select, protect, arrange, and record documents and artifacts; and to show handiwork, home furnishings, and habits of the life of our forefathers in order to communicate the historical values of the town and to provide present and future access to our cultural past.

The EHS is a privately funded nonprofit organization located at 1014 Province Lake Road in Effingham.

The EHS presents a humanities-related program on the third Friday of each month, at 7 pm, unless otherwise announced, followed by refreshments and the business meeting. Programs are free and open to the public unless otherwise indicated. The EHS Museum is open prior to each month’s meeting and by appointment. For more information on the Effingham Historical Society, call Alfred Levesque, President, at 603- 539-9078.

Foot Tapping Jazz with Moose Mountain at Wakefield Opera House On Saturday, September 24, the Wakefield Opera House Performing Arts Committee will host the Moose Mountain Dixieland Jazz Band with Lance MacLean. The rollicking good show starts at 7 pm; tickets are $15 per person at door; $12 in advance from Ed Morrison (603-522-0126); Angie Nichols, Wakefield Tax Office; Sharper Image Salon and Woodman’s Barber Shop in East Wakefield or Lovell Market in Sanbornville.

The Moose Mountain Jazz Band got started in the Brookfield/Wakefield area in August of 2001 when Lance Maclean was asked to put together a small threepiece group for a “Dixieland Night” at the Wakefield Historical Society’s Red School House.

The event was a complete success and many in the audience asked, “Where can we hear you play again”?

Organizer Ed Morrison worked with Lance and several area musicians that wanted to get together and play Dixieland Jazz on a regular basis, to schedule a series of “Jazz parties.”

The first event in January of 2002 was supposed to be just a “casual affair” where the band would play some and the people who came, could talk and visit with everyone including the band, just like a party. It turned out that most people wanted to just listen to the band!

Given the enormous response received from the audience to the soldout first event, The Moose Mountain Jazz Band was formed in February of 2002 shortly after that first “Jazz Party.” The band has been very active since, playing at least once a month

The Moose Mountain Dixieland Jazz Band will perform Saturday, September 24 at the Wakefield Opera House. throughout the year at concerts, private parties, parades, and fundraising events and in area schools.

The music called Dixieland Jazz has its roots in American history, drawing primarily on African and European sources. It is an ever-changing art form, created just for the listener at the moment in time when the music is played. Thought is an all-important ingredient in this kind of music because improvisation plays a major roll. After an introductory ensemble chorus, band members in turn “solo” on the tune by following the chord pattern and melody line, and in doing so create their own melody to go along with the original structure of the song. As the audience

YOU’RE GONNA NEED A BIGGER BOAT!

is thinking of the tune’s melody, they listen to a jazz solo being played which is not the familiar melody, but rather something close to it.

The result is a new variation of the song every time. The other musicians, particularly the rhythm section (piano, bass and drum) will “back them up” until it is their turn to do the same thing. This is the typical jazz format.

There are different combinations of instruments at one time throughout the piece, depending on the arrangement being played. Sometimes, there is no set arrangement, and all the musicians will watch and listen, as not to get in the way of each other, but to blend, and give the soloist the proper chord foundation for their solo.

It is important to realize that all play according to a set of musical “rules,” following the chord structure of the song being played, and being careful not to “step on the toes” of the soloist. This format is universal to all experienced musicians, and is strictly followed, in this type of music. The

result from the listener’s perspective is a blend of instruments, and solos that appear to be well rehearsed. The incredible thing about jazz is that a lot of it is not rehearsed or written out, which makes every performance fresh and interesting to both the musicians and the listeners.

Come listen to the Moose Mountain Jazz Band at the Wakefield Opera House. Their music is happy, foottapping, rambunctious party jazz. It is music for everyone who feels his blood running faster when listening to a great Dixie beat. It is music for everyone who loves the sound and rhythms born in New Orleans that people the world over have come to love and call Dixieland.

September / October 2016 •1932 Air Speed Record Continued from page 5 pilot planning to take the GeeBee R-1 through its paces in Cleveland, had an unfortunate accident that hurt his back too badly for him to race.

A world class pilot and a world class plane were both stranded; that is, until Granny contacted Major Doolittle and asked him if he’d be interested in flying the R-1 in the Thompson.

It wasn’t much later that the Major showed up at the Granville Springfield headquarters and got in the cockpit of the red and white, black-piped barrelshaped plane. Newspapermen call it the “Flying Silo.” The Major and the Granvilles exchanged a few words and then the plane headed down the runway.

Onlookers watched until they could no longer see the red 11s and the “5” and “6” dice emblazoned on the plane. The next thing anyone heard from Doolittle was a telegram from Cleveland saying, “Landed in Cleveland O.K., Jim.” The R-1 was built for speed. Jimmy described it as “all engine with minuscule wings and a bomb like fuselage.” In Cleveland he learned “She’s got plenty of stuff. I gave her the gun for just a few seconds and she hit 260 like a bullet without any change for momentum and without diving for speed, and she had plenty of reserve miles in her when I shut her down” but “I didn’t trust this little monster. It was fast, but it was like balancing a pencil or an ice cream cone on the tip of your finger. You couldn’t let your hand off the stick for an instant.”

The Thompson Trophy race is a 10lap race flown in front of the 50,000 seat

the year’s Indianapolis 500 was only 104 mph.

You shake your head and look out the window where leaves are starting to color up, and fall’s final harvest waits.

Life in Madison can be predictable, but the world is changing, no small thanks to those Granville boys up to Maple Grove Road.

The Madison Historical Society, www.madisonnhhistoricalsociety.org carries Farmers Take Flight by Tom Granville’s daughter J.I. Granville, and www.donhollway.com posts the 1994 Aviation History magazine story “The Gee Bee.” Both were indispensable in the writing of this story.

Cleveland grandstand built specially for aero races. It’s built for 50,000, but everyone says folks were overflowing way beyond the seats. This was a race not to be missed. In designing the planes for speed, maneuverability is often sacrificed and crashes get pretty common. It’s gory, but true. Like boxing matches, a lot of people seem to come out for the blood.

The ambulance chasers were disappointed in 1932, though. There were close calls but no crashes. At one point the Major’s plane was trailing black smoke, but there was no fire. His engine was just running rich.

The staggered start had the R-1 playing catch-up most of the race, but Jimmy Doolittle played it cool and reeled ’em in. The straightaways were the airplane’s strong suit, but the veteran flyer’s skill and instinct got him around the pylons at the curves.

The speed was astounding. Doolittle

You can hardly start to imagine that kind of speed. The B & M train to Silver Lake doesn’t go near that fast, and the world record train speed set in Germany in 1931 was just 143 miles
