SUMMARY:Acadia Camping\, Biking\, and Hiking
DESCRIPTION:Join me for a MOAC tradition that is back!! \n\n\nWe will be camping at Bar Harbor Campground.   See link:  https://www.thebarharborcampground.com/  Please review so that you are aware of the campground rules\, etc.  I believe tenting is $34.00 per night.   They do not take credit cards or reservations but we have never had issues securing sites.  We generally camp along Loop “B”. \nThe plan will be to bike the carriage paths or hike.  If anyone wants to post a planned trip\, it will be welcome.  Otherwise\, decisions will be spontaneous. \nIf there is interest\, potluck on Saturday night.  If not\, everyone is on their own for food. \nHopefully the weather will cooperate.  If not\, we can bail at the last minute. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Hike Abbott Mountain in Shapleigh\, ME

SUMMARY:MH&T’s Flagstaff Hut
DESCRIPTION:Please be vaccinated to join this trip. Thanks! \nMaine Huts & Trails operates four “Eco-Lodges” in northern Maine\, and for the weekend of October 14-16\, their Flagstaff Hut is all ours. The hut is located on the eastern shore of Flagstaff Lake\, about a 2.5 hour drive from Portland. \nThis will be our 8th year leading this trip and each year it is an experience to remember. Good company\, good food\, and the Maine woods. How could it not be? \nFlagstaff Hut (in name only) is an off-the-grid lodge (capacity of 44-48) with amenities. Electricity is provided by solar panels and a generator. Hot water via propane\, and heat\, if needed\, via wood. The building has composting toilets\, showers\, and a full commercial kitchen with refrigeration. \nThe cost for this weekend is $65 per person. \nSleeping is bunk room style (earplugs) in two separate buildings apart from the main lodge (earplugs). \nYou need to bring a sleeping bag\, pillow cover (recommended)\, clothes\, and personal items (earplugs). You will need to provide your own food for Friday\, Saturday morning\, and Saturday lunch. You DO NOT need to bring anything to cook with or on. You will have full use of the commercial kitchen. In a process perfected by Tammy\, you will be asked bring a small amount of food to contribute to the cause for Saturday dinner. More on that later. Sunday breakfast is a full spread paid for by part of your payment for the weekend. \nCoffee/tea/hot chocolate will be provided at least in the mornings and for some reason\, Happy Hours tend to materialize in the late afternoons. No obligation to participate but donations for those are welcome as well. \nThe hut is designed to be remote. You cannot drive to it. Gear can be dropped off at the service gate to shorten the distance but all must be carried in and out. We try to have as many carts and wagons as people are willing to bring to share to help move stuff. Your vehicle will be two miles from the hut when parked in the lot. \nActivities can include hiking\, mountain biking\, paddling\, navel gazing\, reading\, puzzles\, drinking wine\, staring at the fire. Music if the right people show up. Keep moving every second\, or do nothing. \nPlease click HERE to sign up. \nChecks can be made to Peter Mullen and mailed to 38 Lawrence Rd\, Gray. $65 per person for the weekend\, \nWe also accept Venmo. Pay to tammy-mullen-5. Please put “MOAC” in the comments. \nWe look forward to seeing old friends and new faces at Flagstaff this fall.

SUMMARY:Hike Morse Mountain & Seawall Beach
DESCRIPTION:Please consider joining us for a steady but peaceful 6.4 KM (3.8 mile) out & back hike through the Bates – Morse Mountain Conservation Area off Small Point Road (ME-216) in Phippsburg.  Prior to the return leg of the hike\, we will be able to take in the beauty of the incredibly expansive and unspoiled Seawall Beach as it looks out on open ocean and Popham Beach State Park to the East.  For those that wish\, pack in a lunch to enjoy prior to hiking back to the parking lot. Please note that we will be proceeding rain or shine barring a sustained deluge. The terrain out and back is an established woods road\, parts of which appear to have been paved at one time. There are some sections that are moderately steep.  Take Maine – 209 through Phippsburg to the point where you go straight through onto Maine 216 (Small Point Road) (Maine – 209 goes off sharply to the left at this point). Proceed on Maine – 216 for approximately 0.8 miles and look for the Morse Mountain Road sign on the left. Proceed up that road for approximately 500 feet or so to the trail parking lot. Barring anything unusual\, the objective will be to get back to the parking lot no later than 1 PM.  If there are any questions that morning\, 802-770-9106. Prior to that 207-844-8142.  Caution\, cell service can be spotty in that area. Please note:  We will hit the trail at 10 AM sharp in order to help ensure we are back by 1 PM.

SUMMARY:Sunday Oct 30 Hike South Moat Mountain in Conway NH
DESCRIPTION:Weather looks good for this 5.8 mile 2132′ climb up South Moat Mt in Conway NH.  High of 65 forecasted for Conway but temps will most likely be low to mid 50s at the top.  Regardless\, many layers including warm layers and good hiking boots are a must.  Bring water\, food\, first aid kit\, camera.  Poles recommended for descending – especially if your knees frequently talk to you. \nEstimated hike start is 10am with a finish by approximately 3pm – this includes stops and lunch at the top.   Stopping for beverages/food on the way home is an option as well. \nThis will be a slow paced hike (1) because I am slow (2) because I have not hiked much this past summer and (3) I have not done this hike before.  However\, this is not a beginner hike – more like intermediate/advanced. \nCarpooling encouraged and we will meet at the Hannaford in Standish – please be vaccinated due to carpooling. \nLimit 8 people.  Please text or call Elaine at 207-650-7417 by Saturday 9pm to reserve your spot and get the final meeting times. \nAllTrails link to the trail map and description: \nhttps://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/new-hampshire/south-moat-mountain-trail
