People who only see the FNCA grounds during warm weather know how beautiful the property is. It is also quite beautiful in the winter.

Every year when the ice on the Saco River breaks up, it is a thing of beauty. Some years, it as also a thing of danger and devastation. This particular year, the ice broke up, and then refroze several times. In the process, large, thick chunks of ice collided and pile on top of each other and caused all sorts of damage to the banks of the river and the nearby trees.
