When heading toward town from the Fort Severn
airport, after crossing a single-lane bridge, visitors are greeted
immediately to their right by an airplane propeller and a ship's anchor
propped up on a pile of rocks. The anchor was dragged in from the coast
and the prop is off a DC3 that crashed right in the middle of town
during heavy fog in 1975. I like to think the makeshift monument
represents the remoteness of Fort Severn and the risks involved with
travel North of the Wall.
