Black Mountain State Forest is a 795-acre (322 ha) state forest in Haverhill, New Hampshire, on the western slopes of Black Mountain, a 2,840-foot (870 m) summit at the western edge of the White Mountains. In 1920 a report was issued on the state forest area that was then 343 acres (139 ha) and included a Black Mountain Lookout Station (no longer present). It was composed of pasture and young spruce. The original tract was purchased in 1919 and 1920. The state forest is bordered to the east by the White Mountain National Forest, which covers the summit of the mountain.

The Oliverian School is an independent alternative boarding school in the Pike section of the town of Haverhill, New Hampshire, United States, serving students from 9th to 12th grade and founded in 2003 by Barclay Mackinnon. Oliverian is a small school designed for students who have had difficulty with education in more traditional settings. The school is coeducational, with approximately 36 students roughly equally split between boys and girls who are housed in single-sex converted-farmhouse dormitories located on the main and east areas of the campus. Each dorm residence is supervised by a designated dormitory parent. Oliverian is inclusive to LGBTQIA+ students and faculty and permits transgender students to live in their preferred dormitory. The campus is on the western edge of the White Mountains of New Hampshire and is part of a 2,000-acre (810 ha) recreational preserve, providing access to outdoor sports and cultural resources.
