CONWAY — Expecting chaos at Diana’s Baths again this year, Conway selectmen on Tuesday voted to hire someone to direct traffic at the popular recreation site.
Diana's Baths is a series of pools and cascades managed by the U.S. Forest Service. The trailhead is off of West Side Road roughly 2 1/2 miles from North Conway Village.
