Move your mouse across the pictures for more information.

43.3 MM. Just .2 mile in from the Katahdin Ironworks Road access via a blue spur trail is the end of section 2 and the crossing of the West Branch of the Pleasant River. This is a view of this river ford on Wed. Sept. 3, 2003. Most of the time this is an easy ford that is about a foot deep, but in high water this ford could be dangerous. You also ford the river for your scenic Gulf Hagas dayhike. Courtesy askus3@optonline.net
