Bigelow Mountain

Avery Peak on right, West Peak on left

  Mount Bigelow will look different today than the photo I took yesterday, just because of from where the photo was taken.  It's located up along the "former" Dead River in Franklin and Somerset Counties of Maine.
  The Mountain was named to honor Major Timothy Bigelow, who climbed it in 1775 for observation purposes during Benedict Arnold's March on Canada, as they followed the Dead River.
  I said "former" Dead River, because it was dammed and is now Flagstaff Lake.  Flagstaff the former Town was flooded by the waters of the Lake.
  The Appalachian Trail crosses Bigelow Mountain, it's a rugged climb.  The 10,540 acre Bigelow Preserve was created in 1976 in response to a planned ski area.  The Audubon Society also uses Bigelow to observe the transit of raptors during migrations.
  It's a beautiful part of Maine that has served us well, and the namesake of my character Bigelow Bob, that I've kept on the back burner for a while because my wife thinks that's where Bob belongs.
