This four-night adventure with our Registered Maine Guides is great for teens who are ready for an immersive experience deep in the Maine woods. This trip will take us off-grid, and we will be carrying all our gear and food to support us for the five days we are in the wilderness.

We will meet in Freeport at Through the Trees on June 12th and ride together in our van to this beautiful area in northern Maine. There will be a moderate level of hiking in regards to difficulty range, hiking 5-6 hours per day on three out of five days of the trip. We will be able to explore the 100-mile wilderness and the trails and many waterfalls of the incredible Gulf Hagas, aka the “Grand Canyon of Maine.” There will be opportunities for swimming, fishing and just chilling in hammocks. We will be sleeping in tents or, if conditions allow, hammocks! Exploring this pristine wilderness will be an amazing experience you won’t soon forget!

Ages 13-17

Gear Prep Date: June 9th from 3:30 to 5pm. We will meet to help you prep for our trip!

Join our Registered Maine Guides for a three day and two night paddle on the Saco River! This is the perfect trip for a teens first adventure into the wilderness. After we meet at Through the Trees in Freeport, we will travel as a group to Swan's Falls in Fryeburg where will begin our 11 mile journey along the Saco River. There will be plenty of time to learn the basics of canoeing in a supportive environment on slow moving water. We will take time to learn how to choose and manage a campsite while working together as a team. Along the way from campsite to campsite we will have plenty time to allow for playful stops along the river and time at our campsites to explore. It’s sure to be a blast! Teens do not have to have any prior paddling or camping experience to join us on this trip however they should be able to manage their own gear and a be willing to learn and help manage the aspect of daily life in the wilderness.

An epic adventure awaits! Our journey begins at the start of the International Appalachian Trail in the Katahdin Woods and Water National Monument where we will hike for three days, traversing two moderate sized mountains and roughly 20 miles of trail. We will then meet up with Packraft Maine and start the next leg of our journey that same afternoon. During this second part of the week we will make our way down part of the East Branch of the Penobscot River. Along our way we will experience a portion of the river that Thoreau and his Wabanaki guide once traveled in 1857. The paddling section will include portages around major waterfalls but we will see some Class II rapids that we will navigate safely alongside our packraft guide, Alex. Most of the paddling will be Class I, moving flat water which will be perfect for (hopefully) wildlife spotting.

This trip is great for teens ages 14-17 who are looking for a challenging and exciting wilderness expedition. Teens should have the ability to hike with a 40 pound pack and have had previous camping and hiking experience as we will be carrying all our gear to support us for five days in the wild. As with all our trips we invite everyone to help create a supportive community environment by participating in meal prep/clean up, group gear carry and to embrace the Leave No Trace principles.

An email will be sent to participants with packing list and exact times of departure and arrival in Freeport.
