Hey,
I've got a question for you denizens of the NH North Country (Peakbagger!)...
On a recent drive along Rt-16 north of Berlin, I noticed that there are fairly small rock islands in the middle of the river. They seem to be man-made and regularly spaced. I wondered what the reason for them might be.
Are they a holdover from log-driving days? Did they keep log jams from forming or help form log jams?
Or, are they some natural phenomonon created by the river?
