Back around the mill, downstream from the dam, and in stark contrast to the smooth millpond area, a much rockier journey lay ahead for the east branch of the Salmon Brook. In the upper-right third of the picture, remnants of a foundation of another saw mill that once graced the gorge can be seen. Just beyond the water in the foreground lay a deep, 'saw mill hole' whose depth made for refreshing swimming opportunities during hot summer months.
