confluence with the Kennebec River. At the Kennebec Gorge see if you
can spot any whitewater rafters. The trail then cuts back through the
woods to the parking area. Moderate.
Sally Mountain, Attean Township
: In recent years, Jackman has in-
creased its focus on hiking and on mountain biking. From the Attean
Pond Road, which is used to access the popular Bow Trip on the Moose
River, you can reach the Sally Mountain Trail by either paddling a short
distance across to the trailhead on the north side of the lake or by parking
near the end of Big Wood Pond and following the Canadian Pacific Rail-
road tracks (over the Moose River Bridge) for 1.7 miles. The trail starts
out gradually enough but quickly becomes steep for the last 1½ miles to
the fire tower at the top. Great views of the entire Moose River Basin and
nearby ponds, hills all the way into Canada. Strenuous.
