Ripley Falls, on a short trail from Crawford Notch, slides down a long, steep granite slab. In Carroll County, Beede Falls near Sandwich is a quieter spot with a small pool and overhanging ledge. Coos County extends far north to the Canadian border, where Beaver Brook Falls near Colebrook sits right beside a state highway and other falls lie in remote spruce forest.
