Stone Flume: 1875 and 2009

When May Brook leaves the village reservoir, it falls into the Stone Flume and flows to Crystal Lake. I had been trying for three years to get this photograph but was never successful until John led the way to a safe cliff for photography. There was still snow and ice last weekend when we made this trek. The other photographs are stunning because of the rugged and untouched landscape. See my Barton Reservoir Set for more.

The flume has been photographed before. Below you see photos archived at UVM taken in 1875 and 1911.
