Title: Tropical Storm Irene - White Mountain National Forest, New Hampshire
Description: This how the underside of the Thoreau Falls Trail bridge looked days after Tropical Storm Irene in 2011. High waters from Irene caused peeling to the bottom of the two logs that support the bridge. It crosses the East Branch of the Pemigewasset River in the Pemigewasset Wilderness of New Hampshire. Tropical Storm Irene caused heavy destruction to the White Mountains Trail System. Update: the bridge seen in this photograph is no longer standing, and hikers now have to ford this water crossing.
Location: Lincoln, New Hampshire, United States
