Hikers are the only people who call that area wilderness. The locals recognize it as a working forest. Even Gulf Hagas is not in its natural state. Parts of the gorge were widened with dynamite to make log drives easier.
@@nickthinks1 I haven't hiked the AT through there but I'm in that region several times every year. I used to kayak through Gulf Hagas every spring. Now I go there to fish Nahmakanta Lake and the nearby ponds, Pemadumcook and the Debsconeags. I also spend time on the West Branch of the Penobscot and in the Seboomook region every summer. The part of Maine between Greenville and Millinocket is like a second home to me.
The 100 Mile Wilderness tshirt comes from Phil. You can reach him for orders at facebook.com/profile.php?id=100057663039719&mibextid=LQQJ4d He’s also the best guide for overall help with planning and resupply.

Same thing. Solo hiking starting the 3 of July
I hiked it last year finishing. It was an amazing and positive, life changing experience . Where did you get that awesome t-shirt?

My pilgrimage begins 9/13/2021. Out of shape, old, slow, and with a heavy pack. I go to the woods ….
Let's use some affirming language! You're willing, available, dedicated, and goal-oriented. :)
I'm hoping I'm ready for it by the time I reach it.
Sand is abrasive...not good for your pack.
