RE: 2nd meeting


The border times are below, there is gas in dickey and Pohénégamook is a big town, the crossing is in quebec. The Fort Kent crossing to NB can be avoided.

The 2004 map is most likely out dated.

i am thinking we do # 5's trip backwards to have the 24 access back to the states.

or we stay in Millinocket and do 4 day trips. Baxter looks like tons of fun, there is also a vista look out on the east side

# 2

here is the 2009/2010 me map link http://www.mesnow.com/pdfs/2009ITSMap.pdf

It looks like you can cross at Estcourt Station/Quebec 35 at the northern most point of Maine west of Ft Kent on ITS 92.  This map is from 09-10.

It says on the map to check locally for gate schedule before you head out.

It also looks like a long ride from Saint Francis/St John to the border, gas may be an issue.

Trip talk in October, I like it.

It looks like from the 2004 map you can only go from Quebec to Maine at St. Pamphile Mon-Fri 6am-9pm. 

To cross at Ft. Kent you must go through New Brunswick.  Which may mean another pass.  I will see if I can find out if you can pass through on that trail without buying a NB pass.

Just so this post holds some applicable value since #2 has provided more links than Google of great information, the picture is attached.

#3, the double host, is driving this year's meeting season and doing one helluva job.  Thanks for your leadership #3.  Would you like to make it a trifecta on the new land?

If we really do paintball, should we make this a family affair and invite kids to do their own rounds?  Are their outfits that do rounds for kids?  We'll include a cookout and make it a WPR outing.

I'll see if I can get more border crossing info for ITS83/Qc75 and Qc55/ITS89.

There's no shame in spending time with the family.  I left early for that very reason.

Dates noted.

The original plan was to go the #3's place on Wyman lake. 

#3 still wants to go there.
#2 still wants to go there.

I'm staying at the lake house this weekend.
I haven't made any arrangements for last minute changes to the meeting spot. I wouldn't be able to go anyplace else.

It looks like a day of rain for Friday, may I suggest moving a few miles NorthWest to a place called Josephs?  Friday nights have been fun there...
