Column: A hidden gem in the midst of Baxter State Park

MAINE SUNDAY TELEGRAM • October 2, 2022

River Pond Nature Trail, 6 miles west of where the Baxter Park Road and the Golden Road pinch together between Millinocket Lake and Ambejejus Lake, features three major trails and a couple of connectors for a total of 4-5 miles of easy and scenic woods walking. En route are 11 full-color interpretive displays that will treat you to a host of interesting facts about the land’s remarkable ecology and its rich history as part of a commercial forest. ~ Carey Kish
