About 240 members of the Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests gathered at The Rocks for the unveiling of its new North Country headquarters during its 122nd Annual Meeting at The Rocks here Saturday.
North Country publisher, avid outdoorsman, and well-known writer John D. Harrigan of Colebrook has died at age 75.
In just 120 years the Society has been at the forefront of change that has rippled out from the social and political boundaries of New Hampshire to the nation. Their founding effort to help pass the Weeks Act not only resulted in the White Mountain National Forest but spread the National Forest idea across the continent.
