The River Foss is an improved river in North Yorkshire, England, and a tributary of the River Ouse. It rises in the Foss Crooks woods near Oulston reservoir close to the village of Yearsley and runs south through the Vale of York to the Ouse. The name most likely comes from the Latin word Fossa, meaning ditch and is mentioned in the Domesday Book. The York district was settled by Norwegian and Danish people, so parts of the place names could be old Norse. Referring to the etymological dictionary "Etymologisk ordbog", ISBN 82-905-2016-6 dealing with the common Danish and Norwegian languages - roots of words and the original meaning. The old Norse word Fos (waterfall) meaning impetuous. The River Foss was dammed, and even though the elevation to the river Ouse is small, a waterfall was formed. This may have lead to the name Fos, and later changed to Foss.
The responsibility for the management of the river's drainage area lies with the Foss Internal drainage board (IDB). It has responsibility for the area from Crayke to the pre-1991 city boundary of York covering 9,085 hectares and 162.54 km of waterways. The Foss IDB is itself part of the York Consortium of Drainage Boards that oversees 10 IDB's in the Yorkshire region.

The name most likely comes from the Latin word Fossa, meaning ditch and is mentioned in the Domesday Book. In 1069 William the Conqueror dammed the River Foss just south of York Castle, close to its confluence with the Ouse, to create a moat around the castle. This caused the river to flood further upstream in what is now the Hungate and Layerthorpe areas, forming a large lake that was known as the "King's Pool" or the "King's Fish Pond" and which provided fish for the markets. It was approximately 100 acres in size and fishing was only allowed by li...

England is a great place to visit, whether travelers are making their first or umpteenth trip abroad. That’s partly because the language barrier isn’t there for English speakers, though one can hear languages from throughout the world spoken here. First-time visitors may just want to hit the highlights, such as Westminster Abbey or shopping at Knightsbridge in London and perhaps visit a university town or Stonehenge. Return visitors might opt for hiking on the moors, investigating the nooks and crannies of picturesque villages, or digging into their English heritage. The best places to visit in England truly offer something for everyone. 1. London No superlative is too great when it comes to describing London, the capital of England and the UK. This bustling city is history personified fr...

The city has a rich heritage and has provided the backdrop to major political events throughout much of its two millennia of existence.

On the road again in our Roadrunner RV! James and I travel to Western Oklahoma and camp at Foss State Park. We also explored the Washita Battlefield National Historic Site near Cheyenne, OK and Antelope Hills.
Took a 17+ mile round trip overnight backpack to Big Heart Lake and a walk to the view point to Angeline Lake, in the Alpine Lakes Wilderness. Not quite above the tree line, but high enough for some very epic views. The Lakes are HUGE and great to swim in! Crystal clear water with little trout jumping everywhere. The trail is always there and you will never lose sight of it. After Trout Lake, it is hot, rough, rocky, steep, and has a ton of roots. Only a few logs to go under and climb around. There is also quite a bit of elevation loss but eating the mountain blueberries right from the trail the whole way was awesome! Go for the dark shinny ones. Only carried a liter of water at a time. Many water sources to filter from. Excellent lunch or break spot at around 2.5 miles to soak your fee...

From the description at the beginning of the film: "In 1930 in Washington County, Maine, the president of the Machias Lumber Company, Alfred Ames, made a film which he called “From Stump to Ship.” In this reconstruction, a narrator speaks the words Ames used when he showed the silent film. From Stump to Ship is the most complete film record of long lumbering operations of that era known to exist today." This film was recorded starting in the winter of 1930 and mentions the following people and places: The logging camp on TWP 36, Paul Mealey, haul boys from Kennebec, Charlie O'Donnel, Mr. McCreedy, Burt Stanhope- teamster, William Hudson- teamster, Wilton Foss- teamster, Alfred Mealy- teamster.
