Canoeing Adventures for the First Timer and Seasoned Paddler
Another Canoe the Wild Allagash trip and while we had planned to put in at the south end of Eagle Lake, headwinds prevented us from doing so (or else get wind bound sitting it out for 1 or more days) so we opted to start from Churchill Lake. After 2 years of drought, sure is nice to canoe north of Allagash Falls to the Village. We still have room on a few 5 & 7 day Allagash trips in 2022.
A collection of pictures from our 2021 season. Over 225 people took part on 24 trips mostly on the Allagash but also on the St. Croix and St. John Rivers. Canoe trips were from 2 to 7 days in duration. Many trips catered to the first timer. The 2022 canoe season is starting to look busy with over 100 already signed up including custom private group outings as well as open session trips for individuals, friends and families.
