  • 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.

The importance of the railroad system of Maine, as a means of developing the resources of the State, is becoming more apparent every year. By reason of the facilities it affords, mineral wealth is being uncovered, manufacturers are utiliz­ ing the abundant water powers, and our products are afforded ready markets; and, although in ·obtaining these facilities in some localities, heavy burdens have been assumed by cities and towns, still we think the benefit derived will fully com­ pensate them in the end. We do not, however, wish to be understood as favoring the principle of towns and cities aiding in the construction of railroads. The benefit to be derived by a large portion of the inhabitants of a town, is too remote to justify it in most instances. We again have the pleasure of congratulating the public, and the several railroad corporations operating roads in the State, on the remarkable exemption from any serious casualties during the year.
