Though the "game-changing" phrase is used loosely regarding outdoor gear One of those products is BOG's DeathGrip Tripod The first model I used showcased aluminum construction I don't go on a big game hunt without a DeathGrip I even packed my carbon model to the Dark Continent recently even though I knew the PH would have shooting sticks When a hunter finds a product they can't live without BOG is a kingpin in the shooting sticks arena. However, like any forward-thinking company, they continue to innovate and develop new, purposeful products. After spending a week testing BOG's Backs & Packs a category relatively new to the manufacturer I can testify that no stone was left unturned in the creation process These packs and bags were built for serious hardcore hunters who put a premium on comfort I could've started this review with any of the BOG packs I received. My Western eyes went immediately to the Inception & Helix 6000 A multi-day western pack that weighs a mere 5 pounds 11 ounces the Inception carbon fiber frame is bulletproof The fabric is one of my favorites in any pack I've tested — 420D ripstock nylon It holds up when the pack's surface scrapes against rocks is rubbed against trees and is tossed to the forest floor at the end of a long hunt It will resist poking tines when you're successful The large top opening of this 6,000-cubic-inch pack opens wide The backpack's front face sports MOLLE webbing for additional gear attachment and a small pocket is located directly under the lid attachment buckles I found this pocket ideal for my knife and sharpener The next pocket down allows a zippered entrance into the pack's main compartment allowing the user to get inside the main and grab specific gear without pulling everything out This lid provides additional storage and covers the top main compartment entrance when closed Zippered side pockets on each side of the pack make excellent locales for additional gear like a spotter and DeathGrip Tripod I appreciate the open duo pockets on the outside of the side zippered pockets These open-style pockets are excellent for water bottle storage Lumbar support is second to none via the thick The waist belt showcases more MOLLE webbing Waist belt pockets are essential for need-right-now gear The Quick Attache buckle system separates the pack from the frame and reattaches it easily You don't need an MIT degree to operate this pack BOG included an internal meat shelf so the meat can ride in a game bag between the back and frame Load lifters and compression straps suck loads down tight and the Velcro-on shoulder straps are ultra-comfortable This pack is a solid choice if an extended-day western hunt is on the horizon The pack is available in M/L options fitting waist sizes between 28 and 36 inches and XL options for 34- to 44-inch waistlines and if you are a savvy western backpack hunter who knows how to save space in a pack a 3500-cubic-inch pack is a hunting staple With an empty fighting weight under 5 1/2 pounds, the Inception & Helix 3500 A smaller version that mimics the 6000 in almost every way minus the top lid it feels less bulky on the back and allows for increased mobility when in tow has a bow/rifle holder in the furthest pocket on the bottom and is interchangeable as a complete system or standalone meat hauler I shot my Hoyt compound from 20 yards to 120 yards and the many adjustment points allow for the just-right customization I also went for a five-mile stroll in the rain BOG brands the 420D ripstop nylon fabric as being water-repellant you can confidently roam the West in search of big-game nirvana The pack is available in M/L options fitting waist sizes between 28 and 36 inches and XL options for 34 to 44-inch waistlines As a western hunter, I've tested several packs during my outdoor tenure, and none are more comfortable than the Agility - Stay Day Pack but the light aluminum frame with an ideally situated vented back mesh support makes this pack ride like a dream I appreciate the attention to detail the manufacturer put on the straps and Velcro tabs hold them in place so they are not flopping around This 2900-cubic-inch capacity tote is a multi-purpose pack that works well as a Western day pack but is also the right size for whitetail ventures The total empty weight is 3.7 pounds—up to 25 percent more capacity by weight—and the pack comes with a 150D Micro-Ripstop Rain Cover You must feel this backpack on your back to know how airy and good it feels The Agility is crafted from 420D Micro-Ripstop Material striking an ideal blend of toughness and get-close quietness I cheer the padded waist belt and zippered pockets I've yet to touch on this feature; all zippers are covered with a grippable rubberized tab The pack easily stores a 3-liter hydration bladder in the main compartment and sports mesh zippered pockets for proper gear organization Two smaller zippered side pockets grace each side of the pack and each side pocket has two Retractable Bottle Pockets sized to fit 32-ounce Nalgene bottles and Hypalon-Reinforced Clinched Molle Straps BOG created the 2,400-cubic-inch capacity Kinetic to give hunters increased options With a fighting weight just north of three pounds the Kinetic gives hunters ample storage space in a backpack that doesn't feel too heavy The Kinetic looks and feels much like the Agility but this Limited Lifetime Warranty build doesn't feature the lightweight aluminum frame you get all the other features of the Agility and I found the pack rides nicely on the back It's the dead of summer in southeast Colorado Though the backpack sat flat against the back its lightweight feel made carrying weight in extreme temperatures tolerable and spacious Kinetic gives you a top-tier daypack without the sticker shock While a litany of things impressed me about BOG's new Pack & Bag line one I really want to call to the forefront is the similar purposeful design each of the four packs above shares I've never understood why a backpack manufacturer that believes in a particular design would want to make such drastic changes between packs Those who choose the BOG Pack lineup will find similar design and function which boosts ease of use and familiarity when swapping between backpack types I also appreciate that BOG didn't add nonsense features to their pack designs that doesn't serve a purpose; it gets in the way and reduces the end user's ease of use I've started hunting elk closer to roads and trailheads Not because I'm lazy but because too many elk hunters are walking past elk to get to elk If I mark between eight and ten spots on my favorite digital hunting app I can quickly bounce in and out of these spots and when chasing whitetails from a treestand or ground blind Enter BOG's Ultimatum - Lumbar Fanny this 1100-cubic-inch capacity pack weighs 2.7 pounds and has six outside pockets and a black buckle system inside allows for customization of the padded harness and I appreciate the mesh storage compartments inside the middle bottom pocket and those on the outside of the twin vertical pockets Hypalon-reinforced cinched MOLLE straps are located in three different locations on the fanny pack I loaded the pack with all my whitetail gear: calls I even added my rattling antlers and attached them to the side of the pack using the bottom straps and I appreciate that it takes up very little room in the tree The waistbelt wraps around the trunk for in-the-tree storage Someone asked me recently to name one piece of hunting gear I couldn't live without I'd grab my bino harness before anything else A well-made bino harness hugs the chest comfortably and keeps optics ready Users shouldn't have to fight with the flap and the bino holder should have a pocket system BOG's Vigilant - Bino Bivy's main binocular compartment utilizes a hook and nylon strap system and I appreciate the zippered rangefinder pocket below the main optic compartment This pocket keeps a rangefinder ready without adding a separate rangefinder pocket The vented back pocket is perfect for a smartphone and bowhunters who uses a handheld release; I love the vented I use one for my release and one for my wind cheek powder Bino attachment is a breeze via the straps and I like that BOG included a Micro-Fiber Lens Cloth The shoulder and chest straps are comfortable and adjustable even with the rangefinder pocket on the front and its fine lineup of packs and bags will be a staple for hunters worldwide The NAW Team moves elevated blinds from one area of their lease to another James Kroll us a Frontier low-till planter for food plots in Kentucky James Kroll and Haynes Shelton discuss which implements you need to maintain a hunting property's access roads The NAW Team plants fruit trees for whitetails on a Kentucky hunting property James Kroll discuss the proper way to use a PTO tiller for food plots James Kroll share their tips for planting in thick grass thatch Shane Indrebo joins Haynes Shelton to profile the Lee Hardy sheds from Wisconsin James Kroll discuss what you do and don't need in a tractor for your deer land North American Whitetail's Blake Garlock visits with John Traywick Chief Design Officer at Browning Trail Cameras to talk about an exciting new addition to the popular Vision Pro cameras for 2025 — the ability to receive live video straight from the field This realtime application runs through the Browning Trail Cameras app and can certainly be used an an added layer of security for your property as users have the option to save any video they choose this setup is perfect for property owners that don't live particularly close to their dirt Haynes Shelton and Russ Clarken discuss the incredible non-typical Russ downed in Iowa during the 1994 hunting season Aron West downed this staggering typical he calls “Skyscraper” on Oct James Kroll find mature buck travel corridors by pairing boots-on-the-ground scouting with topo maps See All Other Magazines See All Special Interest Magazines Get the top North American Whitetail stories delivered right to your inbox This website uses online tracking technologies, such as cookies and pixels, to serve advertising and improve our services.

With the town of Bow completing its final payment to the Merrimack Station power plant this year to settle an old tax dispute the town’s operating budget is set to decrease next year The operating budget now stands at $11.4 million reflecting a 5.2% decrease from the previous year’s $12 million which led to smooth sailing at the budget hearing on Monday After the town overestimated the power plant’s assessed property value Bow reached a settlement deal with the utility in 2018 to pay $1.4 million spread out over five years Those payments were included in past operating budgets Despite two dozen town warrant articles and a discussion of the proposed school budget the public hearing at the Bow High School auditorium ended within 35 minutes Most of the projects spelled out in warrant articles such as replacing a drainage culvert on Bow Bog Road purchasing a dump truck for the public works department purchasing a K9 police cruiser and procuring vehicles for the fire department are all planned capital expenses funded from existing reserve funds that the town has saved over the years One of the warrant articles proposes adding $500,000 to the Community Building Capital Reserve Fund to help pay for the future expansion or renovation of the building on Bow Center Road according to figures presented Monday night the tax rate is expected to increase by $1.01 The school operating budget is proposed to increase by about $2 million to $35.7 million in part due to a bond payment of $1.1 million for the Bow Elementary School renovation Other increases include a 4% salary raise and the inclusion of a coordinator of equity and wellness position that was formerly financed by grant funds but is now reliant on the school district you agree with our use of cookies to personalize your experience measure ads and monitor how our site works to improve it for our users A Merrimack advocate has been awarded the Goldman Environmental Prize a yearly award that goes to a person from each continental region who works to protect nature and the environment As NH looks to reshape its solid waste future A former top official with New Hampshire’s environmental services agency has been appointed to run the Environmental Protection Agency’s New England office Towns across New Hampshire are facing uncertainty around planned solar energy projects as a $1.6 million dollar grant program experiences ongoing delays New Hampshire’s regional energy sector providers and advocates say there are a lot of unknowns surrounding the Trump administration's imposition of a 10% tariff on all Canadian energy products House Bill 123 addresses the negative impacts carbon sequestration has on New Hampshire’s timber industry and heavily timber municipalities HB 123 would modify the existing yield tax on cut timber in RSA 79  to include taxing the yield of the metric tonnage of carbon sequestered from standing timber A lack of widespread charging infrastructure makes EV motorists nervous about how far they can get in the state before they need a charge members of Laconia’s electrical aggregation committee unanimously approved the final draft of the plan and if adopted by the city council after a Feb the plan would be sent to the Public Utilities Commission for their review This website is using a security service to protect itself from online attacks The action you just performed triggered the security solution There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase You can email the site owner to let them know you were blocked Please include what you were doing when this page came up and the Cloudflare Ray ID found at the bottom of this page Earth Day Match: 10x your impact for nature today! Standing out in vivid contrast to the surrounding Pocono Mountains landscape Tannersville Cranberry Bog provides a snapshot of colder times a large glacial lake occupied the space of what has since become a thick soup of peat moss Affectionately known locally as “The Cranberry,” Tannersville Cranberry Bog is ingrained in the local community and culture nature lovers and photographers who visit each year Of special interest are some of North America’s most beautiful native orchids including rose pogonia and the state-endangered heart-leaved twayblade the unique ecosystem that remains today serves as the southernmost low elevation boreal bog along the eastern seaboard It represents an intricate transformation that took place over the millennia and would be impossible to replace if destroyed The Tannersville Cranberry Bog Preserve is one of TNC's first nature preserves in Pennsylvania. The preserve in managed in partnership with the Kettle Creek Environmental Education Center who provide educational opportunities for the local community careful stewardship by TNC and partners including Kettle Creek Environmental Education Center the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources and a local volunteer stewardship committee has yielded great returns as the bog soaks up rain and runoff like a giant sponge—cleansing water and controlling pollution throughout the Pocono Creek watershed North Woods and Fern Ridge Trails are open to public access Directions to Tannersville Cranberry Bog Preserve There is a small parking lot on the left near the trails and a bulletin board explaining the trails at the start of the North Wood Trail section The Fern Ridge Trail is another 0.3 miles on the right PLEASE NOTE: Do not turn into the home at 107 Lavender Lane (at the corner of Lavender Lane and Cherry Lane Road) This is a private residence and you are trespassing Restoring the diversity and vitality of Tannersville’s leatherleaf-cranberry bog community is necessary to keep this ecosystem thriving Although the infilling and growth of shrubby vegetation and forest succession is a natural process it may be happening more rapidly due to nutrient input from nearby roads and from residential development in the watershed Ray Milewski and students from East Stroudsburg University established several small study plots at the preserve Their research suggests that removing woody shade producing vegetation allows rare bog plants to reestablish themselves In an effort to engage our conservation community and encourage the return of certain species not seen at Tannersville in decades (like the grass pink orchid Calopogon tuberosus) trustees and volunteers came together in late March and early April 2022 for a series of grueling but rewarding workdays Weather was the biggest wild card—the temperature at the first day’s morning meeting location was a bracing 20 degrees Regular changes in weather occurred during the two weeks snow and sleet showers experienced during the first week The work involved removing trees with chainsaws lopping smaller brush and limbs and dragging the cut material to the boardwalk and out of the bog to a chipping area The resulting mulch will be used on upland trails TNC staff and volunteers were able to complete six of the planned ten days of restoration work giving us a great start to our ongoing plan for opening up areas of the bog The total area where vegetation has been removed to date comes to approximately 0.37 acres—about 0.25 acres were cleared this year The target restoration area inside the boardwalk loop is approximately 1.3 acres Our restoration efforts are focused along and around the bog boardwalk to allow us to continue building on past restoration success and provide the greatest opportunity to showcase that success to preserve visitors There is still much work to be done and we’ll be reviewing and assessing those changes through our partnership with Monroe County Conservation District – Kettle Creek Environmental staff through their public walks in the bog scheduled throughout the year this bog ecosystem is home to several rare and unique sights and wildlife Because of its fragile nature, the bog itself can be visited only during regularly scheduled walks conducted by the Monroe County Conservation District's Kettle Creek Environmental Education Center Private walks are available for groups upon request; dogs are not allowed on the boardwalk trail Public access is always permitted on the North Wood and the Fern Ridge trails PLEASE NOTE: when traveling to the preserve please do not turn into the home at 107 Lavender Lane (at the corner of Lavender Lane and Cherry Lane Road) This is a private residence; please respect our neighbor's privacy This flat loop trail system passes along the edge of the wetland and through a mature hardwood forest dominated by oak trees The shorter loop along the edge of the ridge offers a better view of the area and the longer loop passes through several areas of ever- green trees and through excellent wildlife habitat these trails are good for cross-country skiing This single loop trail rises slowly in the beginning through an oak hardwood forest Then it follows an old road and eventually proceeds down a slight hill to run along the very edge of the bog with lots of wetland trees shrubs and ferns including blueberry bushes The Boardwalk Trail remains accessible by guided tour only; dogs are not allowed on the boardwalk trail Learn more about regularly scheduled hikes by contacting the Kettle Creek Environmental Education Center at 570-629-3061 Plants: visitors will find plants such as calla lilies gold thread and carnivorous sundew and pitcher plants as well as native orchids such as rose pogonia and the state endangered heart-leaved twayblade Other endangered plants include bog rosemary and Labrador tea sheep laurel and swamp azalea can also be found here wild turkey and snowshoe hare can be found here eastern towhee and whip-poor-will have also been spoted at the preserve We are creating a community science database of all kinds of life—from lichens to ants birds to mammals and everything in between for our preserves in Pennsylvania and Delaware TNC's roots began with local citizens and scientists concerned about special places and species. That legacy continues today. Across our lands, we are utilizing iNaturalist—a digital platform that gives users an opportunity to share and discuss their findings Of the 14 preserve projects in iNaturalist nine have observations recorded; help us increase that number and our understanding of the species—good and bad native as well as invasive—that can be found on TNC lands across the state This information can also help guide and inform our conservation staff's management and monitoring decisions The Nature Conservancy is dedicated to building a world where both people and nature can thrive together Our mission is to protect lands and waters on which all life depends We strive to offer opportunities for individuals of all ages and perspectives to develop a lifelong bond with the natural world We believe that nature should be accessible to all and we invite you to enjoy the outdoors safely and fairly at our public preserves We invite you to attend one of our many public events and guided walks through the unique ecosystem of our Tannersville Cranberry Bog Preserve during our 2025 season Join environmental educators from the Kettle Creek Environmental Education Center to learn about the bog’s formation *Walks typically take about 2.5 hours and cost $6 Please call 570-629-3061 for directions and to register Public walks and events are open to anyone but pre-registration is required and limited; no walk-ins will be accepted Roger Spotts has long been one of the Tannersville Cranberry Bog’s most recognizable and knowledgeable ambassadors he has led guided tours on behalf of the Kettle Creek Environmental Education Center in Monroe County sharing his wide-ranging expertise with countless visitors He is beloved in the community—particularly among local 4th-grade students who tour the bog each year—and serves as an invaluable source of knowledge about the history and unique characteristics of this special landscape TNC extends its heartfelt thanks to Roger for his invaluable service and his tireless commitment to educating the stewards of tomorrow we invited him to share a few of his favorite reflections from his career My background in wildlife and land management really laid the groundwork for my career I arrived in the Poconos in 1983 as a naturalist with the Bureau of State Parks I’d gone to college at Penn State for wildlife biology and that’s always what I’d envisioned I’d end up pursuing But when [renowned local naturalist] Don Miller introduced me to the Tannersville bog I hadn’t ever traveled north to see a boreal bog before But I remember being fascinated by the insect-eating plants and all of the other wildlife in the bog ecosystem that you didn’t always see What would you say is your favorite part of environmental education My favorite part of being an environmental educator is all the interactions I’ve gotten to have with people coming to see the bog We’ve had 4th graders from Monroe County schools coming to visit for 40 years now It’s been a great partnership and the basic program is still the same It’s amazing: The kids don’t have their tech with them They make notes or draw things that they see I never have to worry that they’re not going to be interested The minute they see the insect-eating plants or they realize they’re actually floating on the boardwalk instead of standing on solid ground Any particularly memorable bog tours over the years We’ve had a number of state representatives and county commissioners visit over the years There was a group of Japanese dignitaries once that The Nature Conservancy brought through We had some Russian scientists who brought a translator and they shared that they had similar boreal bogs back home even if some of the species were different Another memorable encounter was when a group of 4th graders and I came face to face with a black bear on the boardwalk it moved away—and we weren’t about to go after it—but I’m sure those kids still talk about that to this day What big changes have you observed since you first started The audience has changed over the generations and so has technology or maybe a field guide that you pulled out and you’d have to try to match a picture or take it back to show someone to try to identify it And that tech element can be a very good thing in many ways but you do lose a little bit of that old wonder But one of the most impressive things that really hits home is when you stand in the middle of the boardwalk away from the traffic and housing of Monroe County and you realize that this bog itself hasn’t fundamentally changed in thousands of years It really gives you a deep sense of optimism that it is possible to protect natural spaces My greatest hope is that the work I’ve done has helped TNC raise awareness and share its mission with others not just in Pennsylvania but maybe even around the world I’m looking forward to having more time to fish But I’m not going to disappear from the bog I don’t ever want to stop being an educator and will still be around helping out whenever I can and enjoying all the people that I get to meet The Nature Conservancy owns nearly 1,500 preserves covering more than 2.5 million acres across all 50 states These lands protect wildlife and natural systems serve as living laboratories for innovative science and connect people to the natural world Join us at the Akustika Fair at the Nuremberg Exhibition Centre from April 4-6 Meet The Strad team at stand F08 and pick up a free copy of the magazine The Strad Directory Jobs the instrument can lay a claim to being ‘the oldest violin’ - despite being made two years ago Discover more lutherie articles here was discovered at Wissington Fen in Norfolk It was the biggest and best example ever found an expert in drying and preserving Bog Oak The Bog Oak measured more than 1.25 metres in diameter and was 13.4 metres long though it is likely that it was only part of the original tree which may have stood some 52 metres high It was decided that The Table for the Nation was something that could display the grandeur of this ancient tree It was Hamish Low again who led the project to create the table which was then expected to be unveiled at Ely Cathedral in October 2021.  who was visiting Hamish on an unconnected matter was asked if he would make a violin using Bog Oak Philip had been making violins in the time honoured way for many years; to use this exceptionally dense black wood for the back and sides of a violin strongly conflicted with his traditional ideas of violin making Yet Hamish was insistent that the wood was suitable for the instrument and was keen that the unique properties of the wood be capitalised on He described the mesmerising clarity of a guitar made from the same Bog Oak by the renown guitar maker Hamish then explained that he was hoping that both guitar and as yet unmade violin would be played at the unveiling of the Table For the Nation at Ely Cathedral.  ‘I wondered what I was letting myself in for,’ he confesses ‘I couldn’t believe wood that had been asleep for 5000 years would sound very lively.’  a specially selected piece of Bog Oak arrived from Hamish ‘There were so many unknowns that I was keen to get started and find out what I was dealing with,’ Philip says ‘So I dropped everything and concentrated on the Bog Oak.’  He discovered that the wood cut well but not as cleanly as maple It also required more frequent sharpening of tools ‘When I started to hollow out the back,’ he explains ‘I could tell early on there was a voice ready to come out I was a bit concerned that the violin might be too loud and so I left the back thicker than usual to compensate knowing I could always adjust later.’ No adjustment subsequently proved necessary.  Watch: Listen to the Bog Oak violin - the world’s oldest violin? Read: Ask the Experts: selecting the right tonewood Read: Violin crafted entirely from wood of indigenous African trees Philip had pegs made from the wood cut from the C-bouts ‘I was mindful of how valuable the wood was He made it clear that he thought Bog Oak was entirely unsuitable for musical instruments but finally agreed to make the pegs.  ‘The problem that occupied me most during the making was how to finish the violin,’ Philip recalls ‘I thought about this for weeks while I was making it I don’t normally make a violin that is black and white Any assumptions that the finished instrument would sound dull be lazy and unresponsive were shattered when it was first played ‘It proved to be the opposite of all the things you might think an instrument made with this ancient wood would sound like,’ Philip says Everyone who plays it comments on its rich voice and clarity of tone.’ When asked about how he feels about using non-traditional woods in the future Philip admits that the experience of making the Bog Oak violin has changed his attitudes ‘I am still very much a traditionalist at heart It was a privilege to work with Bog Oak and to create the only violin of its type in the world but it also opened my eyes to the possibility that as our traditional materials become scarcer there could be other woods out there that we could be using to make beautiful musical instruments with.’  There is an opportunity to see and hear the Bog Oak violin at a concert given by the Blythe Quartet on 29 July in St Peters Church Guestwick Further information from thebogoakviolin@gmail.com  A special thank you to Hamish Low for all the technical detail and support. Further information about the Fenland Bog Oak and The Table for the Nation at www.thefenlandblackoakproject.co.uk Read: In Focus: An 1824 violin by Nicolas Lupot Read: Making Matters: Choosing the right wood Read more lutherie articles here most with actual-size photos depicting every nuance of the instrument Our posters are used by luthiers across the world as models for their own instruments thanks to the detailed outlines and measurements on the back The number one source for a range of books covering making and stinged instruments with commentaries from today’s top instrument experts This year’s calendar celebrates the top instruments played by members of the Australian Chamber Orchestra Australian String Quartet and some of the country’s greatest soloists was for a time the only luthier active in Cremona Michel Samson tracks his career through his known works Self-taught and living far away from any centres of lutherie Marino Capicchioni became famous in his time for the superb quality of his instruments Ever heard of Rita Strohl’s Great Dramatic Sonata ’Titus et Berenice’ Sandra Lied Haga uncovers a long-neglected work for cello and piano Our May 2025 cover star describes the instrument as the ‘most extraordinary Strad’ he has played on Our April 2025 issue cover artist discusses her bow and instruments Colin Gough and Jim Woodhouse share their memories of the well-regarded British luthier and acoustician Site powered by Webvision Cloud Scientists around the world are actively engaged in determining exactly how much carbon they contain; it’s a question that’s regarded as increasingly relevant as the warming climate threatens to cause more decomposition in these peat bogs and more carbon to leak into the atmosphere as a result This concern is a driving factor in the work being done by Rusack Professor of Environmental Studies and Earth and Oceanographic Science Phil Camill and his colleagues along with other researchers from Bowdoin College as well as St have been collecting and analyzing samples from the peatlands of north-central Canada they spent two summers doing field work in northern Manitoba—an area described as the Canadian low Arctic “It’s also not that far from the city of Churchill which is known as the polar bear capital of the world,” noted Camill “although I’m happy to say we didn’t see any on these trips.” They spent their days collecting core samples from peat bogs and from the mud at the bottom of lakes Camill and team extracted peat as deep as about a meter and a half “This provided us with evidence going back almost 9,000 years which in geological terms is around the time the glacial ice receded and these peatlands began forming.” are unlike the vast peat landscapes of the North in that they occur in small pockets in low-lying depressions and are only about thirty meters (one hundred feet) in diameter and this is what makes the research his team has been doing so valuable “Large-scale remote-sensing efforts to classify peatland extent across the Arctic may miss some of these areas consequently, we may be underestimating the amount of carbon that’s out there All of which feeds into this much bigger question of how much carbon could get released into the atmosphere if the warming climate causes the material in these peat bogs to deteriorate faster.” Camill et al. have been ploughing through a mountain of data, and they still have a lot more to analyze, but earlier this summer, they published a paper incorporating this research in the Journal of Geophysical Research–Biogeosciences 2021 at 9:52 pm ETTerrance Sleweon​ of Bow was taken into custody at the Bow Bog Road scene Sleweon had two outstanding warrants for his arrest ( Jeffrey Hastings)New Hampshire State Police and Bow Police are at the scene where one person was stabbed One man was detained and removed from the scene and New Hampshire State Police were dispatched to a reported stabbing on Bow Bog Road on Sunday The fire department was asked to stage away from the scene with dispatch indicating a man was in possession of a knife and attempting to stab the victim again Police arrived at the scene and reported a man detained and cleared fire and EMS to come into the single-family home just before noon and was transported by Bow fire and EMS personnel to Concord Hospital with serious injuries The age and sex of the victim were unknown at post time Several Bow officers and troopers worked to isolate people being removed from the house into nearby vehicles A trooper was seen removing a portable infant carrier from the house and securing it with an infant in the backseat of a cruiser Bow police said in a press release on Facebook that the man taken into custody in connection to the alleged stabbing was Terrance Sleweon Sleweon also had active arrest warrants from Rochester police and the Hillsborough County Superior Court Specific case information is now known but Sleweon Sleweon was transferred from one cruiser to another and searched before being placed in another cruiser Several people from the house came to a snow-covered car in the driveway and were escorted from the scene by a Bow cruiser and state police cruiser The New Hampshire State Police Major Crimes Unit responded to the residence and is assisting the Bow Police Department with this investigation The Bow Police Department wants to ensure the community there is no risk to the public as this was an isolated incident between two known individuals at a private residence If anyone has any information regarding this incident please contact the Bow Police Department at 603-223-3950 As more details become available the post will be updated ©Jeffrey Hastings www.frameofmindphoto.com/news 2020 at 10:34 am ET.css-79elbk{position:relative;}Cassandra Boardman of Charlestown was arrested on a first-degree assault charge NH — Police in Bow have arrested a woman on a first-degree assault charge after a stabbing incident on Bow Bog Road Saturday Police and fire and rescue teams were sent to Bow Bog Road in the area of Laurel Drive around 9:30 a.m for a report of a disturbance and an individual having been stabbed "The victim received multiple stab wounds and was transported to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries," police said on Facebook "Both the suspect and victim were acquaintances and there is no danger to the public."
