Wow! I have never seen that many, but it's every time I always see at least a few! I am hoping to head more north for the next visit. Thanks for watching!

No

Thank you for watching! This video is a bit more south, ruclips.net/video/kQYd_IoLrx8/видео.html hope to head farther north next time! I made this because I wanted a tool to plan better trips, It's tough to settle on a spot when you don't know what the next one looks like.

Absolutely! A road can look great on a map, and be non existent in real life, bridges too. It's hard to plan a route because you don't know, but that can be part of the fun. I am hoping to go farther north next time I go up there.

Yes, if you drop these coordinates in it will show you where, but that is the red pine campsite it's between the airstrip and the river. 46.5946944444, -69.7917777778 I think there was a pretty steep drop off between the campsite and the river.

@@joemcdonough326 i was there in the 70s it was never that nice it looks great👍😎🇺🇸

Thank you for the nice video.👍😎🇺🇸

Is that near a car wash? I think I went there a few years ago and it was very good, it was a Monday and Big G's was closed so I went there. I have also had a decent breakfasts at the Waterville Grand, Tina has taken care of my group for a couple years in a row there on Monday mornings.

@@joemcdonough326 Yes, in Fairfield right beside a car wash.

@@MichaelPicher43 Yes, that's what I thought, I had an excellent breakfast there 3 Romps ago, thank you for the name of the place!

Devastating! Romp will be different for sure. Also it was a nice break in the drive to the North Maine Woods. I'll miss it, my daughter always knew I would bring her home some giant cookies every Winter Romp.

I agree, it's all owned by paper companies now, and hopefully the way things are can continue, but I would hate to see the North Maine Woods become anything but natural woodlands. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching!

You wouldn't need 4x4 at all, I would be more worried about a tire puncture. If it was rainy or snowy that could change, but I think a 2 wheel drive with nice tires would be all you need to get out there.

@@joemcdonough326 Good info, thanks!

I absolutely love it there, I’m hoping to go back in the Fall.

Thank you! I am always happy to see that people do leave it clean, the very small amount of trash I’ve come across genuinely seems accidental. Thank you!

@@robertberry1033 lucky kids!

Regardless of fines, I'd just hate to be flying, and then hear a plane, then look around for that, lose sight of the drone,, and anything could happen. At that point, anyone would prefer any fine to what that accident could look like. The FAA seems to have a list of Airports you can't fly near, and those not on the list like this one have much more relaxed rules, that being said, I won't be flying there again.

Hi, I’ve never had an LR4, I had a 3 for a while and went lots of places in it. The Seasuckers/rotopax mounts are nice, very secure, it says to Mount them vertically, but I had no issues mounting them horizontally on the roof. I pumped them every day, but usually they didn’t need it. If pumping them doesn’t make sense it will once you use them. I also modified one to take my radio antenna so now that is completely removable too. Once they’re on and pumped they are solid, maybe too solid, id bet I would lose the window before they let go. I agree with stock, especially for overlanding, I did a lot to make my LR3 “better”, bigger tires, compressor, skids, steel bumpers, tire carrier, rack, and it became a heavy less comfortable place to spend time. I’m trying to keep this D5 as comfy as possible. There’s virtually no overlanding near me, so everything is lots of highway before the dirt.

I didnt, but that is good info to know, looks brand new

Yes, 6 Mile is in Garfield for sure, I was looking up stuff for the next trip, and left my google earth in the wrong in spot. I'm thinking about St Francis or Winterville, so I may have to find a spot to stay in Eagle lake, because that's a long drive for me.

I may try to get back up there in the fall, send me a message if you want to stay in touch - joeverlanding.com Scroll down for the "contact us"

The roads in the North Maine Woods are rough, but four wheel drive is not necessary, I would be mostly concerned with tires. The roads are made with logging trucks in mind, and there or lots of rocks, and holes that sneak up on you. I think a Rav4 with good tires would have no issues, just make sure you have enough fuel. The roads in this video are on private property, called the Sebasticook Millennium Green, and it is a few hours south of the North Maine Woods

Hello, so I use two apps. One is Avenza Maps with the Delorme Gazetteer loaded in there, you can buy the official gazetteer from the store in the Avenza maps app. And the other is Gaia with the overlanding Topo layer. Both can be downloaded to the device so you don’t need service for them to work. I also keep a printed gazetteer with me. The other vehicle had a Garmin Tread XL. It was pretty cool, seemed to have the same roads as the gazetteer, which makes sense I think Garmin owns Delorme who publishes the Gazetteer. It is expensive but it was nice, it had all the roads loaded in and the ability to send a message via satellite. It’s pricey but could be worth it depending on how often you get out into the woods. It’s important to say that no resource is perfect. Gaia, Garmin, the official NMW map, all didn’t have roads that were there in real life, and also had roads that were no longer passable, or seemingly nonexistent. All had bridges on the map, but the bridge was actually out. I like the fun of having to replan on the fly, and I guess these roads grow in so fast it’s impossible to keep a map updated, I think the Gazetteer is King up there, but not perfect.

I am glad you guys have that, it's a beautiful spot. Your brother was way too young, I googled him and found his obituary, it was an honor to be in a place honoring a fellow Lowellian.

@joemcdonough326 Thank You Joe. The 2nd Musquacook Lake was campsite was one of Paul's favorite places to be. His best Friend Tom Ryan built on that lake and Paul spent many weekends helping Tom. Also Big Machais lake holds a family camp presently since late 80s . Our Uncles use to park a converted Bus at Squirrel pond in the late 50s when the deer were plentiful. Lot of Pelletier History in those woods. But most of all Thank you again for that beautiful video it was a bitter sweet moment when I saw the plaque. Enjoy the North Woods Joe. No other place like it.

Im going to go to the Winter Romp, then go for some Chinese, then go back!

I am glad you asked, I meant to cover this in the video, but forgot. It doesn't rattle at all, even if I shake it, or put it next to me in the car, or shake it again, it's 100% rattle free in all situations I have encountered..

Yes it does, Deep and shallow.

It is with the 20% coupon

@@KOSerg-vo2qb should be$100-$120 normal price, $80 with a coupon. Gearwrench and Tekton are a much better value than this. Those cheap foam inserts won’t last with hard use, oil and gas will destroy them in a matter of days

Better than my craftsman tools

@@antilaw9911 When that flimsy ratchet snaps, come back and tell me how great Icon really is. If you think ANYONE believes Icon is better than Craftsman, think again.

Better than my 18 year old craftsman as well my tekton are ro but nothing is better than all my snap on 😊

It was more than I wanted to spend, but I was shocked how much it cost to buy the items separately.

Thank you! I hate trying to learn about something, and having to watch someone's intro first!

​@joemcdonough326 do more reviews. 👍

Not really because if a ratchet sounds cheap that is a huge factor for me personally

I don't disagree, if it was terrible you could hear it but this is by no means scientific. I just hate that most every set I've ever bought has a junk ratchet, and then you can't even swap it out because most of the cases are plastic and won't take a ratchet that is slightly different. I'm glad this set came with a decent one, and is good to go, at least for me.

Thank you!

Thank you!

They don't taste it!
