Quechee Gorge, October 1, 2011 Part #1 "The Trip There"

 
We took a random weekend trip to vist my Best Friend Jenn in Vermont for her Birthday, My first time ever in Vermont...which will be coming up again, one month from yesterday.

While on Rt. 4 to Rutland, we started seeing signs for "Quechee Gorge", even though we were already behind schedule we decided to stop in for a last second exploration anyways. . . Please keep in mind this was a little more than a month "Post Irene" and Quechee is in the Middle of the Green Mountains. 

The Pictures follow:


The picnic Area we parked at after going over the Bridge to the Gorge...

Once across the Bridge...

A Brief History of the Gorge...

The Steel Beams that secure the Bridge to either side of Mountains...

Really? ? ? You dont say. . .

The path to the bottom of the Gorge. . .


















So Many downed trees and clutter. . .







Opening to the Basin



Not that I like Snow. . . But imagine what this is like with a fresh coat?










Is this from someone house that they have worked so hard to build? Surly I hope not!







Just past the Visitors Center


Back over the Bridge and on our way to Jenn's Once again

When an 18 Wheeler crosses this Bridge it jumps. . .
