The Kennebec River is all the talk up and down the trail. Some say it is dangerous to ford because the power company up river releases water from time to time which could sweep a person downstream if they were half way across when a slug of water hit them. To solve the problem the Appalachian Trail Conservancy pays a guy to ferry hikers across the river in a canoe.
In the last three pictures the ferry is taking us across with my help paddling up front. When we got there nobody else was around. We had heard the day before there were 15 hikers waiting in line for there turn.
In Caratunk tonight for a resupply, shower and washing clothes.
Had amazing pulled pork with root beer this morning.
