In the woods of Baxter State Park, this unexpected woodland friend shared crackers

BANGOR DAILY NEWS • May 24, 2021

As a youth, I often stayed with my brother Buzz during his 46 years in Baxter State Park. He began his career as a ranger at Abol Campground, eventually moving through the ranks to Park Director, from which he retired in 2005. During those years, the game sanctuary of Katahdin was my classroom for outdoor education. Every spring I reflect on those early days. ~ Tim Caverly
