I stayed at a small farm in a town called Wentworth, NH in the last week of August for a brief getaway before the summer ends. There was no reception for my phone there, and I woke up to a rooster’s cock-a-doodle-doos and sheep’s bahs in the morning. I found The Lost River Gorge on TripAdvisor for a places to visit around the town. I love nature and exploring, so I decided to go. Lost River Gorge contains about a dozen caves that was formed by “forces of water, wind, weather, and time.” 300 million years ago, huge glaciers carrying rocks melted, leaving behind rocks that later formed these caves. I squeezed into nooks and cracks of these rocks and marveled at how awesome they are. Streams and collected water from the rain fell through the rocks, forming small-scale waterfalls.

I write about the Lost River Gorge because it is a good example of sustainability and preservation of our nature. When logging was becoming more popular,  Lost River Gorge’s existence was threatened. Society for the Protection of  New Hampshire Forests saw this danger and purchased the area. Now, it has turned into a tourist site, and the beauty of caves is well maintained.
