Has anyone done the Thelon? That might be a fun trip. I met someone coming off a month on it in a kayak. He said it was amazing. I have been on the bottom 10 miles of it. I would love to do the Allagash again. Did it on consecutive summers when I was 14 and 15. That was almost FIFTY years ago... Getting a bit older! All the way from the West Branch of the Penobscot to Fort Kent. Eagle Lake was loaded with Whitefish. Going up to WCPP late this September for the first time...

We did the Thelon last year, 20 days on the river starting on the Clarke. It's historic but not my favorite arctic trip. You should contact Shawn Hodgins of Wanapitei, and quick, he's trying to fill a few trips this summer. He does a lot of lesser traveled rivers and that's where you find and see better stuff. Last summer I could tell the Thelon had been traveled more by the way some of the old Inuit sites were disturbed. Barrens is the best, enchanting.
