About the Book

Anyone thinking about taking an Allagash canoe trip needs this guide. With information about what to take, how much time is needed, where to start, what to do with a vehicle, campsites and much, much more, the reader will start their first trip with information that would take years to accumulate on their own. The equipment and food lists in the book are extensive. They evolved over many years and will cover a variety of tripping situations. This book, along with author Gil Gilpatrick's book Allagash, will make you an Allagash expert the first time out.

About the Author :
Gil Gilpatrick has been a Master Maine Guide for over 40 years and taught Outdoor Resources at the Skowhegan Vocational Center in Maine for nearly 30 years. He has written extensively about his experiences in the outdoors and his knowledge of how to build outdoor equipment.

Review :
About ten years ago I came across someone making snowshoes using your book. I ordered a copy and built several pair which my much older children are still using. Last fall I glanced at your website again and noticed your books on the Allagash. Many years ago several friends had canoed the area but I never made the trip. The books and map went to the top of my Christmas wish list and made great winter reading! This spring my now 20 year old son lined up a summer job that gave him the last two weeks of August off before going back to college. My first question to him was, 'Do you want to take a week and canoe in Maine?' We just returned from a seven day trip from Eagle Lake to Allagash village! The wind was out of the south on all the lakes, it only rained when we were in camp, and we had just enough water to get through the lower portion of the river! What more could you ask for............ I would not have attempted the trip without the use of your well written books. With the books I had a great idea of what to expect and was fully prepared. Thanks ........... Your books provided the impetus to make the trip with my son. Just a note to say thanks. I purchased your Allagash Guide package last year and just got back from my first AWW trip. Your guide was indispensable and was referenced throughout the trip. We started at Chamberlain Bridge and ended in Allagash Village. We used your recommendation for shuttle service and found Norman to be accommodating and efficient. I would definitely recommend your book to anyone planning to do the trip.
