TheJohns River (also called "John's River"), in northernNew Hampshire, arises at Cherry Pond inJefferson and runs approximately 14 miles (23 km), generally northwest, to theConnecticut River.[1] It passes through Hazens Pond, near theMount Washington Regional Airport, traverses the town ofWhitefield, where it is crossed byU.S. Route 3, and then crosses the town ofDalton before joining the Connecticut. It is named for an early hunter and trapper of the area, John Glines, who established a fishing and hunting camp in the area in the 18th century. Another nearby river, theIsrael River, is named for John's brother Israel.

The river basin drains numerous small ponds, including Martin Meadow Pond, Weeks Pond, Weed Pond, Clark Pond, Burns Pond (formerly Long Pond), Richardson Pond/Marsh, Hazens Pond, Cherry and Little Cherry Pond, Forest Lake and Mirror Lake (formerly Blake Pond). Tributaries include Chase Brook, Carroll Stream, Bear Brook, Leonard Brook, Cherry Mountain Brook, Carter Brook and Bog Brook. The watershed area is bounded by the eastern slope of the Dalton Mountain Range, the southern slope of Prospect Mountain and the western slope of Cherry Mountain (also called Mount Martha).
