Most folks would consider Lincoln to be the beginning of the mountains being immediately south of Cannon Mountain and home to Loon Mountain . It was originally a logging town, but became well-established as a destination for vacationers early on. It is the second largest town in the state by area, after Pittsburg in the Great North Woods and begins the western end of the Kancamagus Highway .
