Mount Abraham Public Lands Fire Warden’S Trail - 8 Miles Round Trip, Strenuous
Mount Abraham Public Lands Fire Warden’s Trail - 8 miles round trip, strenuous t 4,049’ elevation, Mount Abraham (or locally, Mt. Abram) is one of only 13 Maine peaks over A 4,000’ elevation. Evidence of radical processes are on display here, including fire, windthrow, and crumbling bedrock. The Maine Natural Areas Program is tasked with ecological monitoring of Mt. Abraham — an Ecological Reserve owned by the Maine Bureau of Parks and Lands— and the role these natural disturbances play in maintaining these ecosystems. In this guided Heritage Hike, we will discuss how natural disturbance processes may be affecting the habitats that occur here. ————————————————————— Cold streams and big logs - -70.26373, 44.968411 Wood jams provide essential stream habitat for cold water fish. A short distance from the parking area, the trail crosses Norton Stream. Here we get our first lesson in the ecological importance of coarse woody material. Once thought to be a waste of wood fiber, large dead logs are now recognized for providing important habitat values. During the river driving era that lasted into the 1970s, many streams were cleared of woody debris and large boul- ders to facilitate passage of logs on their way downstream to mills. This ef- fect homogenized streams, reducing suitable habitat for cold water species, such as brook trout. Large logs now wedged into the stream bank at this trail crossing improve the structural diversity of the stream. This coarse woody material traps nutrients that help form the base of the food web, and modifies streamflow patterns, allowing scour pools to form that may become trout spawning habitat.

2018 Spring Snow Trail
Celebrating and Preserving the History and Heritage of Maine Skiing • Spring 2018 SKI MUSEUM OF MAINE Jean Luce, First Lady of Maine Skiing By Leigh Breidenbach “...For the next few years [the] main proponent [of freestyle] was to be someone completely unaware of the large part she was to play”- Morten Lund Let’s be clear right from the start, Jean Luce will most likely disagree with the title of this piece; however if you read Dave Irons brief but spectacular 2004 Hall of Fame bio on Jean’s contributions to skiing and competitive skiing in particular, the title of “First Lady of Maine Skiing” is spot on. Jean has officiated at every level of ski racing: World Cup, World Championship, and Olympic. In 1969, she wrote the Eastern Freestyle Rule Book, which would became the first official USSA Freestyle Rule Book. Jean’s willingness to say yes to a challenge is well know in the racing world and at Sugarloaf in particular. In the fall of 1968, Jean and her husband Norton, members of the Sugarloaf Ski Club received a phone call from Roger Peabody, executive director of the United States Eastern Amateur Ski Association, asking if the Ski Club Jean Luce with Harry Baxter, Sugarloaf Ski School Director and Sugarloaf Ski resort would be interested in in a publicity photo for the 1971 Tall Timber Classic World Cup Race hosting a World Cup race. At the time the only U.S. area east of the Rockies that had been a Norton decided to take a trip and get a good look World Cup host was Cannon Mountain in New at the challenges facing the Sugarloaf Ski Club.

Ecoregions of New England Forested Land Cover, Nutrient-Poor Frigid and Cryic Soils (Mostly Spodosols), and Numerous High-Gradient Streams and Glacial Lakes

It is a relatively sparsely populated region compared to adjacent regions, and is characterized by hills and mountains, a mostly Ecoregions of New England forested land cover, nutrient-poor frigid and cryic soils (mostly Spodosols), and numerous high-gradient streams and glacial lakes. Forest vegetation is somewhat transitional between the boreal regions to the north in Canada and the broadleaf deciduous forests to the south. Typical forest types include northern hardwoods (maple-beech-birch), northern hardwoods/spruce, and northeastern spruce-fir forests. Recreation, tourism, and forestry are primary land uses. Farm-to-forest conversion began in the 19th century and continues today.

The Maine Chance
The claim of a federal “land grab” in response to the creation of Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument in Maine revealed a lack of historical awareness by critics of how two other cherished parks were established there: through private-public partnerships and the donation of land by private citizens. The maine chance PRIVATE-PUBLIC PARTNERSHIP AND THE KATAHDIN WOODS AND WATERS NATIONAL MONUMENT t is never over until it is…and even then, it might not be.

Johnsen Company of Portland. Despite these early glimmers of skiing awareness, when the sport began its ascendancy to popularity in the 1930s, the state’s likeliest venues were more distant, and public land ownership less widespread, than was the case in the neighboring states of New Hampshire and Vermont, and ski area development in those states was consequently greater.

2016 Winter Snow Trail
Celebrating and Preserving the History and Heritage of Maine Skiing • Winter 2016 SKI MUSEUM OF MAINE Camden Snow Bowl builder Sonny Goodwin to be honored February 10 By John Christie Former president, Ski Museum of Maine Hammer and nails, heart and soul: That’s what built the Camden Snow Bowl in the 1960s and 1970s. Orman “Sonny” Goodwin, a lifelong skier, was a partner in the construction company that transformed Camden’s little rope tow hill into a significant community ski area that boasted a long T-bar, a chairlift, snowmaking and a distinctive base lodge. Details of his various Snow Bowl construction projects can be found in his soon-to-be-published memoir, Ta l e s From the Life of Sonny. On February 10 the Snow Bowl, the community of Camden and the Ski Museum of Maine will honor Sonny and his many contributions. Sonny has been skiing for eight decades, beginning as a small boy growing up in Camden. His love affair Nobody has been more closely identified with the Camden Snow Bowl with our sport began on a little incline than Orman “Sonny” Goodwin, who erected its lifts and constructed its base lodge in the 1960s and 1970s.
