  • Franklin County by Foot and Paddle Doug Dunlap
    Franklin County by Foot and Paddle Doug Dunlap Progress Report September 15, 2020 For walks and hikes; and travel by kayak and canoe, August 31-September 15, 2020 Discoveries: The United Way and the 2-1-1 phone number, Six Months into the Pandemic Over the past two weeks I have learned much about 2-1-1, a major, indispensable service to people of Franklin County, and throughout Maine, led by the United Way. The United Way of the Tri-Valley continues to serve as a vital safety net for Franklin County residents. The 2-1-1 project is an indispensable service. This is a 24/7 service, staffed by call specialists who take calls from people seeking help of many kinds: food, clothing, shelter, heat; access to mental health services, help with caring for a sick or incapacitated family member, financial burdens of many kinds. United Ways throughout Maine fund this service, in cooperation with the State of Maine. There is always someone to take the call, always available to help guide the calling person to someone who may speak to the very specific need expressed. 2-1-1 was available prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, and widely used by thousands of callers each year. I am informed by United Way leadership that in 2020, Maine 2-1- 1 has received 36,000 pandemic related calls since the month of March. That amounts to 6000 calls per month for six months, an average of 200 calls per day. That is an astonishing figure. It costs money to provide the service.

  • Hiking/Nature Trails
    HIKING/NATURE TRAILS LEVEL TRAIL NAME ANGEL FALLS: 90 foot plunge; one of Maine's tallest waterfalls! From Oquossoc, take Rt. 17 south for about 18.5 miles. Turn right onto an unnamed gravel road (adjacent to a large open field). Immediately cross a bridge over the Swift River, then turn right onto Bemis Road and drive north for about 3.5 miles. Look for a road on the left going downhill and follow it into an old gravel pit (large boulder with graffiti), and park. Look for red blazes, and follow a logging path across Berdeen Stream, and continue following the trail (red blazed) to Mountain Brook. The trail follows the brook up stream and crosses (rock hops) the brook three times before you come to the falls. APPALACHIAN TRAIL: Trail runs from Andover through our area beyond Saddleback Mountain. To reach Trail on Rt. 17, travel 11.1 miles south from Oquossoc. Trail from Rt. 17 to Rt. 4 is approximately 13 miles. It is moderate hiking, no real steep sections. Four miles from Rt. 17 is Sabbath Day Pond and shelter. To reach trail-crossing Rt. 4, travel south approximately 9 miles from the center of Rangeley. From Rt. 4 to top of Saddleback Mountain it is 5 miles. The last mile is above tree line. Please stay on marked trail, as this is a fragile alpine area. Also on this trail, you will find Piazza Rock, shelter and tent sites 1.3 miles from Rt. 4. There is a side trail off of Saddleback Mountain, which then follows ski trails to base lodge approx.
