Maine

Anybody need the plastic storage bins from behind the rear seats of a second gen double cab? I’m about to throw mine out otherwise. Free to a good truck

Katahdin late Sunday after finally getting out of the woods

 

Awfully clean looking for this time of year. We drove by the house we're under contract on and got more mud on us than that!

 

lolol if you only knew what I was stuck in a just an hour or two before. Gave the truck the ol 'snow shovel full of water' wash down so I could dig all the rocks and mud out of the wheels. One of the reasons I didnt get home till about 11 Sunday night..

And its pretty damn dry for this time of year

 

Sabattus Lake is probably about 3 feet low right now, compared to where it normally is this time of year.

 

wonder if the lakes in NMW will be lower levels like late last summer... was crazy to see that much of the shore exposed on Umbazookus/Moose pond we had people setup 400ft into the high water line.

 

Well we're not off to a great start, honestly. This weather tomorrow night should help some, though.

 

Depending on how this spring goes / how much precip we get it certainly could be another dry year. Only one of the sluices at Caucomgomoc was open, and even then only slightly

 

I always wondered how they manage the dams up there, remote monitoring? or if the forest rangers deal with this... would imagine there's a conservation manager up there. riding around checking levels, or if they have level meters that report via radio...

 

I think a lot have remote level monitoring. But only the biggest sluices can be adjusted remotely as far as I know

 

Kenduskeag Race will be wicked dry this year but not as bad as it was a bunch of years ago when you grounded out just past the put in .

 

I know the USGS monitors water in the St. John region remotely.

 

This is a good place to stop for a sandwich.

OHH that's kinda handy to have that info... the temp graphs I mean... at least gives me an idea of the temps I should encounter next month mar20-23 planning to head up camping with a group........

 

I'll be up there Memorial Day weekend.

 

Anyone need some 3rd gen all weathers?

Free

 

I'll snag those if nobody else has spoken for them.

 

@BananaMan all yours

 

How are the roads up in the North Maine Woods? Or in the Katahdin Iron Works/Jo Mary areas?

Where is good? Any places to avoid?

I am feeling the itch for an adventure this weekend! Thanks everyone!
