Ramblewood Live Cam

Spring is a time of change in the Great North Woods. April is our ‘mud season’. Town is quiet in April with folks away on vacation and our winter visitors have gone and our spring visitors have not arrived yet. Ice covers our lakes in there is still snow in the woods.

In May, the ice leaves the lakes at the very beginning of the month. The last of the winter’s snow melts away, although it is not uncommon to have an early May day with snow flakes in the air! Salmon enter the Connecticut River chasing spawning smelt and baitfish and this is the beginning of our spring fishing! Moose return to their roadside haunts all shaggy with the remainder of their winter coats. Visitors return to Pittsburg for fishing and moose watching.
