Hi from Maine, USA! I work on the Golden Road. Google Earth has it wrong on the map. The Golden Road begins in Millinocket Maine and ends at the Canadian Border. It is at no time The Lily Bay Road. The Lily Bay Road comes out of Greenville Maine and ends around Kokadjo Maine. Other than that this is Great! I wish I could see the checkpoint I work at on Caribou Lake. Just can't get close enough to wave at myself. LOL
Katahdin Iron Works operated here for a total of about 25 years between 1843 and 1890. Although isolated, it was tied closely to outside markets and technological advances in the iron industry. Its beginnings, for example, paralleled a growing demand for iron farm tools, machinery and railroad car wheels. In the end, the iron works failed when huge mill in Pennsylvania brought the nation's new age of steel.
Katahdin Iron works once had 16 charcoal kilns like the one remaining today. These kilns each burned 50 cords of wood (which took 6 days to burn and 10 days to cool) at a time and produced charcoal vital in fueling the blast furnace. Cutting and hauling wood to burn in these kilns was a major activity and employed hundreds of men. One winter, when the iron works was at the height of its operation, 400 men, using 200 horses and oxen, cut and hauled 20,000 cords of wood, a year's supply for the kilns.
Thanks,
I have a photo of my hotel in Krasnoyarsk, I can't locate it on the map. Are you from Krasnoyarsk?
If I upload the photo, you think you can find the location on the map?
