Wharton Trip PICS

Took a trip thru wharton today and figured I would share some pics. We were mainly looking for the Paper Mill.
We started at atson ranger station and headed toward basto. We came upon this old foundation off of washington turnpike.


On our quest for the paper mill we saw this fire an extinguished it...smokey would be proud.



We coudnt find the mill but we did find this cranberry pumping station very neat.



Whoops wrong turnBAD!!! USAF bombing and gun range

We the headed over to bear swap hill where in 1971 a supersonic jet traveling at 1300mph struck a fire tower while buzzing the trees. The wreck slid thru the swamp for about 1/4 of a mile.


We decided to look once more for the mill and found it.
