Just mailed in our wish lists for 2004 trips to Baxter State Park.
In September, we'll be heading to Russell Pond for the first time. The AMC Maine Guide describes two crossings of Wassataquoik Stream that have no bridge and no rocks to hop on. One is on the North (Howe) Peaks Trail, the other is on The Russell Pond Trail.
What should we expect? Put on a pair of sandles and walk through? Wade through with packs held overhead? Or can we bushwack a bit to find a suitable crossing? Or does the book exagerate the difficulty?
Thanks,
Willette Brothers
