You can make it very messy Posted by: kayamedic on Dec-01-12 9:18 AM (EST)
if you come to Chamberlain via Umbazooksus and Mud Pond. That is a two mile carry, and uncartable and underwater. Don't lock into a boat right away. If the water is high you might need a quicker maneuvering boat to make eddies at campsites. Also the ranger at Churchill Dam will ferry your gear around Chase Rapids to Bissonette Bridge, and your boat too if you do not want to run the rapids. My favorite Allagash boat is a small nimble solo. A Colden DragonFly. It rides up over big lake rollers as the ends do not dive into the waves. But I do kneel which adds stability. For now all is hard frozen up there.
