Anyway.....I visited Jobs Pond on 2 different days during this year's peak foliage season. The first visit was on Oct. 4th. It was mostly overcast when I arrived, but just before I left, the sky began to clear.
This first image was taken along the North side of the pond.
This image was taken from the access along the Eastern side of the pond just before I departed, as the sky was clearing.
This image was taken 2 days later than the previous two images, on Oct. 6th.
Such a beautiful and tranquil place to visit.
Really nice work, Carol.
ReplyDeleteIf I may ask...how do you get to the north side of the pond (i.e. the first image)? I actually did make it to Jobs Pond on the very last day I was in the area (Oct. 5, the day I transitioned to New Hampshire). All I found was the single public access area (i.e. where you shot the second and third images in your series above).
Hi Kerry,
ReplyDeleteWhen standing at the access area facing the pond, if you go into the woods on your right you will come to an opening where you can see the pond. That's where I shot the first image from.
Thanks, Carol. these photos evoke memories from around 1970 when my dad took me and my brothers to a campground on Jobs Pond. There were separate huts. I think it had been a boys camp years before. At that time, it was run by my father's retired high school math teacher and soccer coach, Jay. He rented - usually weekly - to families during the summer. Nights were cold even in late August. There were rowboats and a floating dock we could swim out to.
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering if there are any campgrounds or boat rentals on Jobs Pond now. Also, what kind of access road. I'd like to go back and see the place. I can't find anything on the web. Do you have any info, or know anyone I could contact?
Thanks so much for your beautiful photos.
Smiling,
Sid
