Foustland

I frequently find myself in the former mill town of Lincoln, New Hampshire.  Once known for turning trees into paper, Lincoln has been embracing the tourism, skiing/snowboarding, hiking, condo buying population, and fighting every minute of it.  There is quite a bit of love/hate between the local population and the "Mass Holes" who come up to create weekend traffic problems along the Kancamagus Hwy.

Well, one of the things I have enjoyed since my first visit to Lincoln in 1999 is the former paper mill site.  Once a mighty, smoke belching, river polluting factory that made large rolls of fine New Hampshire paper, the mill was shut down, and a chunk of the facility was turned into a mall of sorts.  Meanwhile, the rest of the mill was left to rot along the banks of the mighty Kancamagus River.  I have a number of photos of the mill, unfortunately for now all I have to upload were taken with my phone.  So here is a shot of the mill I took in June of 2009.  I will be updating this collection in the future.  For now, enjoy one of the last pictures I took of the mill.  It has been completely razed as of January, 2010.
