The ice on Lake Chocorua went out near sunset April 18th and though the loons are not back as of this writing, spring is definitely here. It’s nice to see the forest floor and fields around the Basin again!

On a fine day in 1929 my great aunt Edith R. Moir, of Newton, Massachusetts, went on an outing with some friends to buy some furniture.

The annual Parade of Lights on Chocorua Lake is a Labor Day weekend tradition that began in the 1960s, initiated by Sam’l Newsom and friends and inspired by an element of some Japanese festival celebrations. Sam’ls son Sam Newsom shares his recollection of this tradition that brightens the end of the summer season on the lake.

Watching the colors migrate up the slopes of Mt. Chocorua and reflected in the waters of the lake, it’s hard to believe the summer went by as quickly as it did. It didn’t seem that long ago that volunteers gathered to clear trails in the area and the lady slippers around the lake were in bloom!

The view from the hill overlooking Chocorua Lake is iconic: from the historic barn downward to Little Chocorua Lake, past the Narrows Bridge, over Chocorua Lake and up to majestic Mount Chocorua. Each year thousands of photos are snapped of this beautiful view.
