Today we head up north to Maine. The paddling around here can be very challenging if you find yourself in the wrong places. The views are fantastic, and worth the effort, in my opinion. Just don't try to camp on the big island pictured here; the human inhabitants are very protective of their oasis.

This one's for my homies on the South Shore of Massachusetts. As kids we used to jump off bridges that spanned one of these rivers, and there was at least one play spot for the white water boats near a bridge whenever the tides changed.
