I think Tony Ambrose nailed it with the map that shows Tinkhamtown Brook.
You will also find the "town" of Hardscrabble, (along the 50' parallel) the fabled New Hampshire community where the members of the Lower Forty tramped the hills and meadows and fished Mink Brook. You'll also find Perkins Brook - Remember Uncle Perk's Perkin's General Store in Hardscrabble?
Also look for the Dartmouth Outing Club and the Dartmouth Outing Club Trail.
Corey Ford was a professor at Dartmouth at the time he wrote "Tales of the Lower Forty" for Field & Stream magazine, and was very active in sports and outings with several of the students there.... "Doc Hall" (Dr. James Whitney Hall, III) being one of his favorites.
I think we should begin our trek along Tinkhamtown Brook and head upstream, and cross what's left of the bridge, and eventually up that rise to Tinkhamtown.
