    Bits and Pieces on the Allagash

    @Odyssey Logging museum in Ashland, Patten, and Bradly. Looking for Swing Dingles. Bradley doesn't have one. The boat I think is an oversized Bateau that work out of the Ferry Landing. I don't know anything about it. I was surprised to see it. The price you pay not seeing anyone.

    Bits and Pieces on the Allagash

    I've been planing a trip to the Allagash for a while and had a window opened that I could go. I packed in a hurry and headed out. (I didn't forget too many things).

    Happy Canada Day

    Today was the first blooming of a patch of Canada Lilies, Lilium canadense.

Two years ago I started hammering the knotweed every couple of weeks. Last year I...

    Kevin Callan: Death of the Campfire

    This is one of the reasons I quit hiking in the Whites, most places have no fires. Then you look at most of the people, and that's most likely a good thing. I'm not dressed without my knife, I'm not going to the woods without a campfire. I REALLY enjoy sitting and watching the flames, especially...

    Pandemic Changed Things

    It's the same thing in other wilderness areas. No permits are needed when hiking in the White Mtns of NH, but if you arrive late to the trailhead you'll find the parking lot full with no on-road parking, and if there is you might have to walk a 1/2 mile to the trailhead.

    Best Places to Live in the US for Canoeing?

    I going with Maine, BWCA is too crowded, and if you need a large canoe area, Algonquin PP is closer. Maine has a large variety of streams in a Northern forest setting which eliminates paddling in the Southern States

    Best & worst campsites ever?

    Favorite: The middle site on North Grace, Algonquin PP Worst: the solo on Frank's Lake also in Algonquin PP. I was hoping for a nice spot, the only site on the lake. I found a burnt-out fire pit where the fire went down into the roots of 2 pine trees. I didn't bother taking pictures
