Hiking Maine's 100 Mile Wilderness by Greg Westrich Pdf

Maine’s 100 Mile Wilderness is one of the most famous sections of the Appalachian Trail – a 97-mile stretch that attracts hikers from around the world. The area’s name derives from the fact that it’s the longest section on the whole AT without a paved road crossing or a town. What most people don’t know is that the region is crisscrossed with logging roads, providing day access to the trail as well as the mountain, ponds, and waterfalls surrounding it. This guide will include more than forty hikes, capturing the best of the great wilderness. Hikes will guide you through a mixture of working forests and preserves. Discover the highest waterfall on the entire Appalachian Trail, remote mountains like Wadleigh, and one of the largest springs in New England. Look inside to find detailed maps, hike descriptions, mile-by-mile directional cues, and much more.

Follow the Blue Blazes by Connie Pond,Robert J. Pond Pdf

Many changes have taken place in the decade since Follow the Blue Blazes was first published, changes in the trails themselves and in the way we hike them. The Buckeye Trail still wends its way around the state of Ohio, following the course marked out by the characteristic blue blazes on trees and signposts along the way. In the intervening years, however, sections of the trail have changed their route, added amenities, or just grown more interesting. From the startling rock formations and graceful waterfalls of Old Man’s Cave, to Native American mounds, battlefields, and scenic rivers, Connie and Robert J. Pond provide a captivating guide to often-overlooked treasures around the state. Each chapter features an overview of a 100-mile section of the trail and three self-guided featured hikes. The overviews and the accompanying maps may be read consecutively to acquaint the reader with the entire course of the trail. But most readers will best enjoy the trail by taking the guide along on one of the featured hikes. Each route is outlined on an easy-to-read map with GPS coordinates and waypoints to guide the hiker, as well as explicit directions from parking lot to trailhead. The Buckeye Trail is readily accessible from Cincinnati, Dayton, Toledo, Cleveland, and Akron. Even a short trip can lead to an adventure near your own backyard.

The journey holds many surprises. And the beautiful mystery of the natural world prevails.
