SUMMARY:Hike Thayer Brook Preserve
DESCRIPTION:This is a no hunting game preserve that is part of the Royal River Land Trust.  In spite of that you\, may want to wear blaze orange. Meet at 10 AM at the trailhead — 92 Ramsdell Rd. in Gray. If you are driving in from 202\, it’s on the right just after Bud’ Lane and you will see a blue sign with white lettering for Thayer Brook Preserve. \nBring a snack or lunch and water. Poles are optional but I found them to be helpful on some of the trails. It’s about a 4-mile hike with ups and downs but no significant elevation. There are several large puddles that can be walked around. The trail goes around a marsh and through the woods. \nThis trip is weather dependent. \nThere are about 8 – 10 parking spots. Let me know if you are interested in carpooling. \nPlease contact me if you plan to go so I contact you in case of cancellation. betsy.hanscom@gmail.com 207-754-9692 call or text

SUMMARY:MOAC Monthly Meeting – Travel in Burma!
DESCRIPTION:Visit the fascinating country of Burma (Myanmar) with Jean Armstrong.\n\nJean\, a long-time MOAC member\, waited to travel independently to Burma (Myanmar) until 2011 when it was possible without going via a government restricted tour. Here\, she experienced 3 World Heritage Sites. Shimmering\, gleaming Schwedagon\, 6 acres of temples and stupas in Yangon was spectacular as was the vibrant tea house street culture.\n\nShe visited Inle Lake\, a trekking area with many colorful ethnic minority groups\, packs of dogs and frequent brownouts. Inle lake has stilt villages built in the middle of the lake\, and active farming and fishing done on the lake berms. She was able to bicycle and wander into countless payas and stupas in search of frescos in Old Bagan\, where there are 6000 temples built between the 11th and 13th century. Armstrong spent time in the city of Mandalay which has gravel streets and 1 trishaw\, or motorcycle taxi for every 3 people there.\n\nShe took trucks to U Bein Bridge\, the tallest Teak pedestrian bridge spanning 3/4 of a mile and Sagaing\, where 600 white temples are set in the mountains along a river with hilly enclosed staircases running from 1 temple to another. The highlight of her trip was being the only Westerner in a military town and finding an ex Shan State videographer for a guide. They rode into Shan State on degraded roads on his motorcycle and stayed in Palaung village homes. She was overwhelmed with the desire of the Burmese and the minority groups to connect with her and share stories about their experiences of living in an oppressed country where time stood still for 50 years.\n\nWhile it is still possible to obtain a 28 day VISA to visit a few select restricted areas of Burma\, The US State Dept. strongly recommends against it due to safety issues which have increased since the 2021 coup.\n\nArmstrong is a long time MOAC member since the first year of the club and has enjoyed participating and leading a number of sports of any season.\n\n___________________________________________ \nIn addition to the speaker\, the meeting is a chance to hear about recent outings\, hear about upcoming outings\, and socialize with other MOACers.  It’s also a chance for new or prospective members to ask questions.  Meeting begins at 7:00\, but come at 6:30 to socialize and meet people. \nLocation: the Allen Avenue Unitarian Universalist Church\, 524 Allen Avenue\, Portland (near Northgate Shopping Plaza).  Here’s a Google Map link. \nWhile we would love to see you in person\, here is a zoom link: \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/85487590664?pwd=YjM3bG1xbnl5MEM5STNmUGJNSEVyQT09 \nMeeting ID: 854 8759 0664\nPasscode: 362996 \n

SUMMARY:Take Pride in Acadia Camping
DESCRIPTION:In Ellsworth\, at my new home\, I have a flat open area up behind my house. There is room for 4 or 5 tents\, and MOACers are welcome to stay for free for the Take Pride in Acadia weekend. Arrive Friday anytime\, and leave Sunday morning. Pot luck dinner in my house Saturday night open to all. There is a fire ring and wood ready for a campfire. There will be a primitive toilet setup and in a pinch\, my house is available. No showers – I have to draw the line somewhere. There is a short uphill walk to the camping area – I have a wheel barrel but a wagon would be better. In the camping area there is a small table\, and bench\, plus plenty of chairs. The site is on Leonard Lake (Union River) so you can saunter down to the dock and or walk my woods path. Also\, a fox\, turkeys\, and a bobcat may show up. \nPlease let me know if you are coming. Contact me at 207-801-1488 or marty@donnellpond.com

SUMMARY:Take Pride in Acadia Day\, 2022
DESCRIPTION:For 31 years\, volunteers have gathered on the first Saturday of November to help ready the famous carriage roads for winter. Sponsored by Friends of Acadia\, teams are assigned troublesome sections of carriage roads where erosion can cause damage over the winter. The task? Rake the leaves and debris off the shoulders and into the woods. MOAC has had members at this event for many years. We have a team that will work together. \nIf you follow the Friends of Acadia link above\, there will be information about how to sign up for the event. PLEASE do not do that. Since we are working as a group\, use the sign up link below so I can keep track. I will submit our roster of names to Friends. \nPlease click HERE to sign up. Your email is so we can communicate before the weekend. Your phone number so we can as well during the weekend. \nMost who sign up make it a weekend\, but that is not required. The actual commitment to the park is from roughly 8:30 am to noon on Saturday. If you choose to make it a weekend\, the rest of the time is yours. \nThere is no cost to the event itself. If you choose to stay over\, you will need to find your own lodging. Tam and I are staying at the Bar Harbor Grand Hotel\, right in downtown and that has been the hotel of choice for the most part for a few years now. But\, you can do as you wish in this regard. The Grand offers a free breakfast. Local restaurants for the rest. \nBack for 2022\, however\, is the free lunch after the work Saturday. Discontinued during Covid\, it’s back. After our work commitment is done\, we can head over to the Park Headquarters on Eagle Lake Road for a “CCC” lunch. Chili\, cornbread\, and cider. At least that’s what it used to be. Aside from the ingredients\, it’s named to honor the Civilian Conservation Corp\, who did a lot of work in Acadia.

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. 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 onto Maine – 216 (Small Point Road) (Maine – 209 goes off sharply to the left at this point) for approximately 0.8 miles and look for Morse Mountain Road 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 hit trail at 10 AM sharp and be back to the parking lot by 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.

SUMMARY:7+ Mile Walk Wells Reserve-Laudholm Farm
DESCRIPTION:THIS EVENT HAD TO BE CANCELED DUE TO FAMILY COMMITMENTS THAT WERE RESCHEDULED. UNFORTUNATELY\, I missed the deadline Fri to officially cancel. Only one member contacted me. I prefer ” Show and Go” for such safe events as flat walking. \n Sorry if you drove to Wells. Hopefully\, you walked anyway and enjoyed your day! \nThis salt water preserve of 2\,250 acres has seven miles of wooded and open trails\, a beach\, and is known as a birder’s paradise and home to native wildlife species. Dress for the weather in layers and wear sturdy trail shoes\, as some areas could be damp\, think peat moss. Bring water\, a lunch or snacks. We may stop for beverages if walkers are interested. FEEL FREE to bring non-member guests!  There is no hunting at this location. \nEither carpool from the Scarborough Park n’ Ride\, Exit 42 – MEET AT 12:45\nhttps://www.exploremaine.org/images/maps/parknrides/2016/ScarboroughCabelaBlvd.pdf\nOR meet at 1:30 at 342 Laudholm Farm Rd\, Wells ME 04090   Directions \nFollow I-95 S/Maine Turnpike to Alewive Park Rd in Kennebunk. Take Exit 25 from I-95 S/Maine Turnpike. Follow Rte One South to Laudholm Farm Road. Directions

SUMMARY:Climb Carter Dome
DESCRIPTION:Climb Carter Dome by way of Mt. Hight and 19 Mile Brook Trail. This is a challenging hike in winter conditions – 10.2 miles round trip\, 3\,500′ elevation gain. Wind chills will be around zero at the summits – be prepared with plenty of extra layers\, a warm hat\, spare gloves for when your first ones are sweaty and damp\, a hot drink\, and microspikes. Snowshoes may also be a good idea\, although I assume the trail will be well packed by Sunday. This week will bring the first snow and ice to the White Mountains\, so there could be 6″ or more on the trail. Bring lunch\, snacks and water in a winter-proof container as well. Also be sure you have a headlamp in your pack\, as it may be getting dark on the way down; also\, bring something blaze orange as Sunday hiking is allowed in New Hampshire. There are fantastic views from Mt. Hight – two of the photos on this website were taken there. Max group size is 8; fully vaccinated hikers only. Call\, text (207-380-6008) or email for meeting places and times (we’re not starting at 2AM) and carpool information. I’m watching Sunday’s weather and if the chance for snow increases this may be re-scheduled for Saturday.
