Another Canoe the Wild trip on the Allagash Wilderness Waterway in the books, 7 days and 6 nights with 10 canoe guests and 2 guides. We saw moose, river otters, eagles, beaver and more. We eat meals cooked over the open fire and desserts baked in a Dutch style oven. This is a great trip for first timers or seasoned paddler’s alike.

Ten students from the East Grand school took part in their first Allagash canoe trip with funding provided by the Maine Outdoor Learning Initiative Grant.
The first of two trips this season with the Allagash Wilderness Waterway Foundation Youth on the Allagash Program. provided free of charge for St John River Valley students. Five days and four nights. Students interviewed park rangers, learned how to handle a canoe in whitewater, explored the artifacts of the logging history, took part in camp chores including starting a fire with a spark, fire wood gathering, cooking, dishes, baking over an open fire and took on leadership roles. Students learned to leave the campsite better then they found it. We’ll be doing a 2nd trip in July.
