SUMMARY:Hike Baxter Peak (Mt Katahdin)

SUMMARY:Mt Pisgah Peak and Ledges Trail\, Kennebec Land Trust
DESCRIPTION:Join me for a morning hike to explore the trails and climb the fire tower in Mt. Pisgah Conservation Area held by Kennebec Land Trust. Trails are well maintained. Weather should be clearing after weekend rains\, which I hope will wash out the smoke intruding on New England from Canadian and Minnesotan fires. The forecast includes more rain after Monday\, so Friday could be the alternate date. \n\nI propose the Tower Trail-Blueberry Trail loop\, 2.4 miles with elevation gain of 329 feet. We could also extend by doing the Ledges Trail also\, which may add about 1 mile more.\n\nMeet at TH at 8:30 a.m. be back at the cars by 1:00 p.m. Email me your interest so we can coordinate driving and possibly weather delay.

SUMMARY:Rangeley\, ME
DESCRIPTION:Fellow MOAC’ers!! \nIt was a long winter and the arrival of spring was most welcome.  It is hard to believe we are sliding in to June!  Given that Dave and I are hosting Rangeley it is time to post some trip details.\n\nA massive THANK YOU to the moac members whos staffed the phone to secure a reservation.  Rangeley State Park group camp site\, west side and water front – sweet!\n\nThe weekend begins the evening of Friday August 7th and carries into Sunday morning the 9th.  The weekend is open to 15 to 20 campers and outdoor adventurers.  The cost is $25 per person for both nights\, firewood is included.  Apologies in advance\, there are no refunds and no pro-rating.\n\nThe last time we hosted we stayed on the east end and we were well attended – so much so that on Saturday evening tents were in the walkways.  While we’ve never stayed on the west end\, we did check it and it is super sweet.  The sites are spacious and can easily accommodate double occupancy of single tents.  We are not allowed to camp on the beach.  The sites are 150+ paces in from the parking so don’t forget your buggies to make lugging gear easier.  Privies are on site and appropriately set a short distance from where we camp.   A short walk or drive to the campground area and you’ll find flush toilets and hot showers.\n\nAlright… so you’ve decided to join… Here are the goods…  Fun is the order of the day.  We’ll need trip oriented leaders for hikes\, bikes\, walks and the like.\n\nOn Saturday I will lead a hike from route 17\, height of land\, to route 4 along the AT.  Highlights include Bates Ledge\, Sabbath Day Pond and Little Swift River Pond.   This is 13.2 miles of moderate to strenuous foot stomping joy.  It is moderate for elevation and strenuous for distance.   To ensure we complete the day on time we will need to spot a car on Friday evening.  Interested parties for this trekking endeavor should email me under separate cover to express interest and commit to car spotting (rlaverdure2016@gmail.com).  To successfully complete this hike and be back at camp in time for the potluck we need to be at the trailhead 8am sharp so the day will start early.  In the event we have no takers\, Dave and I may ask someone for a ride to spot a car and start our hike.  You can learn a little more about the intended hike here:  https://www.rangeley-maine.com/attractions/rangeley-hiking-trails/appalachian-trail/#google_vignette\n\nBiking\, Hiking\, Swimming\, Paddling are all treasured activities in the greater Rangeley arena.  Feel free to express your chosen endeavor and recruit participants.  There is a quaint town center for shopping if one desires and relaxing on the beach is just as much an adventure.\n\nHosting is not new for us but your good humor\, flexibility and a willingness to pitch in makes the weekend a success.  David and I failed at serving morning coffee last time so you will be on your own for breakfast.  We will host a potluck dinner on Saturday and we will provide the proteins – turkey burgers and seasoned sausages.  Fresh greens\, pasta salad and fresh cut vegetables will round out the meal.  We’ll need folks to supplement with the side dishes and desert.  I will circulate a food sign up list to avoid over duplication of items.  I will email all attendees prior to our trip with final bits of information.  It is BYO-Beverages and all things in moderation keeps us sane\, happy and safe.  While Rangeley is very safe and reports little to no issues with wildlife it is critter country.  Secure all food coolers and food containers properly.  We will leave no open trash after the daily meals.  All trash can be disposed of in a bear safe dumpster by taking a short drive to the start of the campsites.  Group campfires Friday and Saturday.  Other than Saturday’s potluck – all meals and beverages are individual responsibility.\n\nChecks can be made payable and mailed to:  Robert Laverdure\, 93 Dead River Road\, Bowdoin\, ME  04287.  Deadline for trip commitment is July 31st.  We’ve heard of this thing called Venmo but sadly\, we only accept checks.\n\nCheers\,\nDave and Rob

SUMMARY:MH&T’s Flagstaff Hut Weekend
DESCRIPTION:Since we will not be around for August and a good part of September\, we are posting this now so you can save the date. Registrations will open about a month before the event. Check out the website below to learn more about Maine Huts and Trails and their huts. Price for the weekend is still to be determined. It was $155 last year. \nWe will answer any questions at any time. \nJoin us for the 13th annual Maine Huts & Trails weekend. MH&T’s operates four “ecolodges” along their network of trails in the Bigelows\, Flagstaff Lake\, and the Dead River. For this weekend\, Flagstaff Hut\, on the eastern shore of the lake is all ours. \nIt’s far more than a “hut”. A full commercial kitchen\, hot water\, showers\, electricity\, composting toilets\, etc. Sleeping is bunk room style (earplugs). This “hut” has a capacity of 48. We hope to limit it to 40 or so. \nActivities can include hiking\, mountain biking\, paddling (boats and gear provided)\, swimming\, or doing nothing. It will be late October. \nYou must walk in. From the parking lot\, it is 1.5 miles on a service road or two miles on actual hiking trails (for the full experience). Gear shuttle provided if you can get there by a certain time on Friday and possibly later. This would mean leaving your gear in a building at the parking lot and it will be delivered in (and out) so you only have to walk. \nYou only need to bring clothes (slippers or something for inside the hut)\, sleeping bag/bedding\, pillow case\, personal items\, earplugs\, and food as described below. You DO NOT need to bring anything to cook with or to eat on. Refrigeration is available but limited. You will have access to the kitchen. \nThe way the food works\, you provide your own food for Friday\, Saturday morning and noon. You will be asked to bring a “slice” of Saturday night’s dinner which all the “slices” will be combined for a fantastic feed. This year’s Saturday evening menu is still undecided. In the past we’ve done a pizza bar\, pasta bar\, taco bar\, friendsgiving dinner. There will also be Happy Hours you can contribute to. \nOn Sunday morning a portion of your payment for the weekend will provide a full spread breakfast. Pancakes\, frittata\, bacon\, sausage\, fruit\, granola\, yogurt\, etc. Vegetarian? Vegan? We have options for everyone. Coffee and tea and hot chocolate provided at least in the morning. Potable water available anytime. You will need to bring any other beverages you desire. BYOB for alcohol.
