    Is there still room to get in on this trip??
    I haven't had a chance to get up to northern Maine before and I just got a roof top tent on my truck this past week. It sounds like this would be awesome!

    I don't see why not. Were going to break into a couple groups I suspect, at least for the transit sections.

    I need to get my shit together and propose some routes and camp sites.

    Work has been kicking my ass though, and I have to fix my truck.

    I'm in the same boat:annoyed:
    Maybe someone else can look into this for some ideas.
    I would but I have to much crap going on right now.
    I will try to find some time if I can.

    I can look into a few different routes this week. I'm at least somewhat familiar with northern Maine. Ill use your itinerary above as a reference to base everything on.

    With this turning into such a big group, logistics and time management will be paramount. As will communication. Everyone will probably want a CB in their truck

    Or family radios at least, I can bring a couple.
    If we are splitting groups hopefully at least 2 people have hams.

    Being a potentially larger group and leading to more space between the first and last trucks/groups... a few HAM radios might be helpful too.

    Yup, FRS handhelds would be good too. Probably cheaper / easier as well, for those that dont have CB yet.

    Whoever is the lead truck should still have CB tho to monitor for logging activity (Typically isn't a ton of that in the spring, but still).
    I have a full GMRS license with a 45W radio in the truck. Hopefully someone else will too, but already we've run into the issue of multiple comms haha

    Not sure if I’m in yet, but if I go, I’ll have 2 handhelds to lend out.
