The Penobscot River
The Most Challenging
Whitewater in New England
The Penobscot River is the most challenging
river in Maine and one of the best in the
United States. You will experience more
technical rapids, exposed rocks, steeper
gradients, and the most awesome whitewater.
The river is set in the shadow of mile-high
Mt. Katahdin and on the perimeter of Baxter State Park. Sightings of eagle, osprey, moose, and bear are not uncommon. The average river flow i equals 2400 cfs, with a range of 1800-3400 cfs. The trip down river is a total of 12 miles with a total of 6 hours on the river. There will be lunch on the river on Saturday which will include steak, salmon, chicken, veggie burgers, salad, dessert, and beverages.
We will be traveling to Millinocket on Friday, July 25th, camp over-night, take our rafting trip on Saturday, camp over-night on Saturday, July 26th, and return home on Sunday, July 27th.
The cost of the trip is $134/person (includes camping and rafting). For those who just want to go camping the cost is $22. We will bring our own camping gear, food, beverages, snacks etc. For those doing the camping/rafting a deposit of 50% ($67) is due by May 23 with the remaining balance ($67) due June 30. For those doing just the camping the full fee is due at time of registration.
