A Quiet Escape: Beaver Pond, NH Through My Lens
A few weeks ago, I found myself enveloped in the serene tranquility of what has become one of my favorite spots in New Hampshire: Beaver Pond.
Located outside of Woodstock, NH, this pond is breathtakingly gorgeous year-round. My first visit was a few months ago when the mountains were brightly colored with fall colors. Seeing this beautiful pond covered in hues of yellow, orange, and red was a sight to see.
Stopping by when driving along Route 112, which winds through Kinsman Notch, I was eager to witness the winter view. And I can confidently say, it was a sight that left me in awe.
Surrounded by the views of the notch, a bright blue sky, puffy clouds, and snow covering the trees and the pond itself, I felt like I was inside a winter-themed postcard. The crisp air filled my lungs, the snow under my feet crunched with each step, and the sun's rays reflected off the snow, creating a dazzling spectacle. Even though it was sunny and I was too cold to fully adjust my camera settings, I managed to take snapshots of a quiet escape that left me wanting more.
People always ask me what it is about New England winter that I love so dearly, and moments like these make the bitter cold worth every second. The tranquility of the pond, the beauty of the snow-covered trees, and the feeling of being in a winter wonderland are what I cherish the most about these experiences.
