Cool Stuff

That's where I spent 21 years of my life. I can mark exactly where I lived and where my inlaws. It's a beautiful area. Wish it was still the way it was as I remembered it growing up. But still beautiful.

Fort Mountain and if you find Birch Groves is where I grew up. Used to walk down the lake in the middle of night in the summer.

Hubbell Hill has some beautiful views. Green Pond has one of the steepest roads I've ever driven in this area. Also an incredible secluded quiet pond.

For those who don't know the area. Candlewood Lake is one of the largest man made lakes. It was formerly known as Lake Neversink and was very small. Then in the 1920's (i think) Connecticut Light & Power bought large areas of land and flooded it all. You can take scuba diving tour to see the old town underneath.

If you find Boardman Bridge on the map and then follow the railroad tracks towards the top of the screen, that is River Road, and where we've done two or three snow meets :-)

Great map Bluemonster :-D
