MOULTONBOROUGH, N.H. - Beautiful foiliage brought crowds to central New Hampshire during the weekend, leading to at least three medical emergencies.

Another man who experienced chest pains was taken by helicopter to Catholic Medical Center in Manchester on Sunday on Bald Knob trail.

A woman had to be taken off Red Hill on Friday after she broke an ankle.
