Baxter State Park - The Armadillo: on route

Baxter State Park

(27 reviews)

This is an absolutely magical place filled without absolutely draconian rules!…read more You can maybe argue that the second thing enables the first thing but...that is not an argument I would make. I find it a bit silly that a state park in rural Maine built around a 5,000+ peak would model its park rules after Denali National Park, centered around the tallest mountain in North America. I think rules this restrictive only serve to make our parks less accessible to people who aren't affluent white liberals but...enough of my soapboxing. We came here to climb Mt Katahdin. And, for once in my life, when I say "climb", I actually mean it! We did a technical rock climbing route on the peak called "The Armadillo": https://www.mountainproject.com/route/106020335/the-armadillo We stayed at a luxurious lean-to at Chimney Pond. The rangers there were very helpful and friendly. They made the drudgery of the various oppressive rules almost...fun? I highly recommend staying at Chimney Pond yourself, climber or not. The views here feel nothing like New England. They feel more like Alaska, north of the arctic circle. Katahdin is only a little over 5,000 feet but it has big granite walls of rock unlike an other mountain in New England. (yes, including Mt Washington) My only complaint is that I got an insane amount of insect/arachnid bites on this trip. If you're staying in a lean-to, it might be helpful to have some sort of bug net! so many rules, so magical

Park was great, went on a three day two night trip. Only knock was our hike from Roaring Brook to…read moreHamlin peak and back was previously reviewed as intermediate to hard. After my trip I would absolutely say difficulty should be changed to hard to expert, the trip down from Hamlin peak was two miles down the mountain and extremely time consuming. All in all an amazing experience just be prepared for a long, challenging, but rewarding trip!

We went fishing with Kevin on one of his snowmoble assited ice fishing adventures. It was…read morefantastic, Kevin supplied two snowmobiles with dog sleds, bait, gear and lunch for both days. We caught a ton of fish and were chasing flags all day. Kevin is a great guide and he knew exactly how to handle the groups mixed level of fishing experiance. He helped the newbies without being overbearing and made sugestions and recomendations to the experianced guys without forcing an agenda on them. I've fished with many guides over the years and a quality guide like Kevin is tough to find. I highly recomend Kevin for your next fishing adventure.

Trips can involve wading small streams for native trout, hiking into remote trout ponds, or floating rivers in Hyde driftboat. Also does limited number of snowmobile-assisted ice fishing trips to classic lakes in the winter. Operates a popular fly fishing school, hosts destination travel trips, and is a certified fly casting instructor. Has published dozens of articles in national magazines like Fly Fisherman, Fly Fishing, the Atlantic Salmon Journal and Outdoor Life. Also published a popular book titled, A Fisherman's Guide to Maine, which received many positive reviews and was a top-selling outdoor title for several years. Does winter talks and book signings at Sportsman Shows and events throughout New England. I really enjoy hosting families and special groups because I make fishing FUN.

And "I don't think you can get there from here" was heard by another. There's no quick way to Leen's Lodge. Ok, there is a floatplane that gets you there quickly from Bangor. But you have to get yourself to Bangor, first. Driving it's two hours from the airport. But it is worth every bit of effort to get there. Leen's Lodge is a gem on the edge pristine clear waters of West Grand Lake in the heart of the northern Maine wilderness. The lodging is rustic - it is cabins on the lake. But they are clean, quaint, and comfortable. The service and food are top-notch. The proprietors, Scott and Kris Weeks, and family, along with a few extra staff provide an experience you won't ever forget. Dinner - 5 stars. The first night I had the most amazing, perfectly seasoned, tender lamb chops with freshly baked homemade bread, wild rice, asparagus, and dessert was local blueberry pie. Other entrees included maple glazed salmon, filet mignon, and fresh Maine lobster. Breakfast - You cannot beat it. Blueberry pancakes with local maple syrup and thickly sliced bacon. My morning order "Wendy, make whatever looks good today." I was never disappointed. But you are not just coming here for the food. It's an epic outdoor experience - the quality of hunting and fishing is among the best in the world. We fished and caught as many big perch as we wanted, plenty of smallmouth bass, and even some land-locked salmon. (I won't mention that my fishing buddy hooked an eel - that did not get in the boat.) All of this with epic views while bald eagles and osprey soar overhead. The fishing guides are amazing and make the experience suitable for anyone - whether you are an accomplished angler or you've never even baited a hook, you'll find what you're looking for here. I understand the hunting is even better. When you're there, don't forget to look up at the night sky. I don't think I have ever seen the stars so bright. I am counting the days until I can return to Leen's Lodge.
