GearHd6 12-04-2006, 12:36 PM I've done that ride a few times, its usually the second leg of my trip. Its easily do-able in a day with plenty of time to spare. I'd say you're looking at about 170 miles if you go through Oxbow and Portage. I've done a 2 day trip from Phillips Maine (south of Rangeley) to Millinocket the first day then Millinocket to Caribou the second day. 2MANYRPMS 12-04-2006, 02:48 PM We were looking to run up and back the same day. Are there plenty of places to stop: food ,fuel,etc? GearHd6 12-04-2006, 05:28 PM Yeah theres plenty, im pretty sure theres gas in Sherman, you can gas up in Oxbow at a little lodge there. Then in Portage theres a general store with gas and good food so you'll be all set. If you put the hammer down you can make it there and back in a day IF the riding is good going. Theres a few ways you can come back so you sorta do a loop rather than riding back the exact same way you went up. Just watch the trail reports and see where riding is best. | |
