This is a story of a certain place in the Northern Forest. A bit of history, a bit of humor, and events in the lives of working people who are part of the multiple dimensions of a rural village all dependent upon a local natural resource.
In a relatively undisturbed part of this large forest with many owners sits a tract of land containing Geezer Pond, a moderate-sized, deep body of water situated near the base of a rugged mountain. A short history of early exploration shifts to more recent times and Sage Duff and Oracle Cambium, their work as professional foresters for a variety of interesting clients, and their developing relationship with Geezer Pond and its environs. The story follows a thread of managing several forests intertwined with amusing vignettes about the people and things that happen in the woods and to our heroes—yielding a glimpse of what it takes to grow and nurture a forest for several purposes. Completing the cycle are the rehabilitation of the lodges at Geezer Pond and the transition (not inconsiderable) from the small town of Spar Creek, with their wives, to the solitude of this special place in the Northern Forest.
For those whose interest is in the forested environment, there’s a special place in one’s mind that offers the perfect balance of interest and contentment. Geezer Pond is that place.
