The Carrabassett Trial will now be open starting tomorrow 6/28. All the old broken bridges have been replaced. The trail from the Plum Creek Road to Route 27 is still muddy some from all the work done on it last weekend. Extremely thankful for the 20 people who showed up on Saturday and 14 that showed up on Sunday to help make this happen. 10 hours each day and a lot of hard work by the volunteers both members and non-members. Also a big thank you to Hammond Lumber for helping with the lumber and delivering it to us.
Quill Hill will be opening on Saturday 6/29. The Canyon trail will only be open on Saturdays and Sundays only until the logging is done in there. During the week you will only be able to assess Quill Hill from the trail between Rangeley and Stratton. PLEASE do not use Canyon trail Monday through Friday or we will lose it completely until they are done logging a few weeks from now. They are logging on the trail. Swamp Loop trail has been closed by one of the landowners and will not reopen.
We just got word that logging will be started at the Brochu Bridge tomorrow. The trail will be shut down from Rt. 16 to Intersection #17. Unfortunately, that will mean there is no trail between Stratton and Eustis that is open. We are working with the paper company to see if we can use it on Saturday and Sunday until they are done. Please stay off the closed trail, if we don’t I am sure they will not be willing to work with us on any partial use. It is expected to be a very short time so please have patience.
