Merry Christmas Eve! Snow and Ice at the Ottauquechee and Connecticut Rivers Confluence. We also see The Willard Twin Covered Bridges, Burnap’s Island, and that lovely rail bridge. Plainfield, New Hampshire/Hartland, Vermont 12/24/25
W. Leb Strip from 50′ – West Lebanon, New Hampshire 12/18/25
Proximity to the airport makes this a highly restricted area (50′ AGL), but I figured it was worth a shot. The man-made stuff is OK from this perspective, but the river sure is pretty.
Still time to get your Drone Art Christmas Gift for anyone who loves the Upper Valley!
Connecticut River Ice at Sumner Falls – Plainfield, New Hampshire 3/7/25
This video gives a good idea of how windy it was. Notice the cloud shadows on the ice. All the clips in this video are normal speed.
River Ice and various scenes around Windsor, Vermont – 2/28/25
I’ve never seen this amount of ice in the Connecticut River at the Cornish-Windsor Covered Bridge. It was dramatic.
This video makes extensive use of time compression. What do you think?
Snow and Ice around Burnap’s Island – Connecticut River – Plainfield, New Hampshire 2/23/25
Mascoma River near the Connecticut River Confluence. West Lebanon, New Hampshire 2/3/25
This was some of the toughest flying I’ve ever done due to the 50′ AGL altitude restriction. It might be worth it to get a waiver at some point to fly higher here, especially with this ice. As it was, I had to snake my way in and through the trees the entire flight. Worth it!
River Ice and Bridges. North Hartland, Vermont. 12/23/24
