Hi. My trail name is Totally Different Subject. This year I am attempting to thru hike the AT and thru paddle the NFCT.

I have hiked from Springer to DWG thus far and am over half way through the paddle. However, time is running out and I need some help.

The last couple weeks I have been flip flopping up and down the Northern Forest Canoe Trail in an effort to do miles Downstream as opposed to Upstream. This is saving me some time.

I am looking for folks who are willing and able to help with shuttling this dirty, smelly hiker/ paddler around.

My intinerary is as follows:

8/19- 8/21 down the Androscoggin river, NH, Amanoosic River, NH and possibly up the Conneticut River for 20 miles. I will need a ride back to Rangeley, ME from either Groveton, NH or North Stratford, NH. This depends on whether it will be possible to paddle up the Conn River.

8/22- from Rangeley, ME to Ft. Kent.

The ending point for the paddle is in Ft. Kent, ME. And I have to be there by end of first week of September. In any case, this will be my stopping date so if I have not completed the entire trail, I still will get off and get back on the AT.

Therefore, I will need a ride from FT. KENT, ME back to Old Forge, NY, which is where my truck and hiking gear is being stored. Once there I have to hire a locksmith to open my truck and cut a new key as I lost mine in a bog.

I am willing to financially assist with those that might be able to help.

If you know of someone who can help please email me at: [email protected].

Any ideas, comments, feedback, suggestions are welcomed.
