Hike to the Beaver Trail Hunt Camp

We just came back from a very enjoyable hike up to the Beaver Trail Hunt Camp located in the Madawaska Highlands. The weather was warm and wet, but we had a wonderful day.

We arrived at Green Landing at about 10:30am and then rented a boat with our friends Rick and Melanie and crossed the Madawaska River. We hiked into the camp and then around some trails up to the top of a mountain close to camp. The view was amazing! Even though it was a wet hike and the kids really enjoyed it! It was certainly good exercise for all. We had lunch at the top of the mountain. After a much tougher (aka STEEP) hike down we crossed the river and were home by about 4pm.

Here is Alana and the kids taking a rest at the "Balsam Watch" just before we started up to the top of the hill.



Here is the view from the top of the mountain where we had lunch. Spectacular! It was a tough hike, especially for the kids, but they were both very happy that they made it!
