PINKHAM’S NOTCH — Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) visited the soon-to-be-renovated historic trail to Glen Ellis Falls Day Use Area on Thursday while traveling north on Route 16 from Conway to Berlin. She used the short hike as an opportunity to discuss the large backlog of maintenance projects on the White Mountain National Forest (WMNF), on which these falls are located, halfway between Jackson and Gorham.

Shaheen also highlighted the importance of fully and permanently funding the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) that helps preserve and maintain parks, forests, wildlife refuges and recreational areas, such as Glen Ellis Falls, in New Hampshire and across the country.“
