Just back from my first trip on the West Branch of the Penobscot. We put in at Lobster Stream and took out at Umbazooksus West in the northeast corner of Lake Chesuncook - 5 days, 4 nights with a stop at Lobster Lake. Weather was fine - sunny and windy during the day, chilly at night, but very few bugs. We pretty much had the place to ourselves – didn’t see anyone else until day four on Lake Chesuncook. The area is beautiful – pictures don’t do it justice.
You can read my trip report here, but if you have a few minutes (23:35 to be exact) check out Aaron’s video.
Not only is he a good paddler and tripper, he makes really good videos as well.
