Evans Notch
This region offers many hikes and attractions and is well-known for its fishing for brook and rainbow trout. One of the major attractions here is the Brickford Brook Trail which starts at the historic Brickett place. John Brickett and his family arrived in the Cold River Valley in 1803. In 1812, he began his house of bricks that he himself made. Mr. Brickett burned his own bricks because the closest source of lumber was a planing mill in Fryeburg, Maine. The Bickford Brook Trail is preferred by campers from Cold River and Basin Recreational Areas.
