Meet at the KI gate at 8:30 (if coming from Brownville) or at the Gulf Hagas parking lot at 9:00 (if coming from Greenville). This is an easy assignment, but does include fording the West Branch of the Pleasant River. It usually takes about two hours to pack up the campsite and bring out seasonal gear.

Joint Ridgerunner Training at BSP
Ridgerunners from both Maine Appalachian Trail Club and Appalachian Trail Conservancy, along with staff from the A.T. Visitor Center, in Monson, spent time at Baxter State Park with Park staff as part of their training. This strengthened ties and communication between the three organizations as they work together this season to educate hikers on the Trail and troubleshoot challenges.
