Packrafting & Hiking Adventure! Summer Paddle Series on Fields Pond

Summer Paddle Series on Fields Pond: Packrafting & Hiking Adventure!

June 23, 5:30-8:30 pm

$30 members /$35 nonmembers, maximum 12

Rather than valuing remoteness, danger and challenge, the focus of packrafting is on finding delight, connection with others, and wildness close to home. Alejandro Strong, from Packrafting Maine, and Maine Audubon Staff, will co-lead this evening of quiet connection. Depending on the trails we choose we will have a 1/2- 2 mile hike to the south west shore of Fields Pond. From there we will inflate the rafts to explore the pond itself. Depending on the route we choose we will paddle from ½ – 2 miles. Arriving back at the Fields Pond boat ramp we will deflate and pack the boats for a short hike back to the start. 

Alejandro Strong from Packrafting Maine together with Maine Audubon staff will lead an evening of connection and wildness. We’ll start with a hike to the southwest shore of the pond, inflate rafts, explore the pond, deflate and pack rafts, and hike back.
