Today, we completed the final stretch of our self-propelled thru-paddle of the NFCT. It was an uneventful float down to Fort Kent (aside from some quickwater and John needing some technical support with his phone), but the morning hours were filled with pensive reflection on the last several weeks on the trail together.

It’s diner day! Without breakfast to eat at camp, we were quick to pack up, and after a short paddle down to Two Rivers Lunch in Allagash Village, we were rewarded with the biggest pancakes I’ve ever seen (along with coffee, an omelet, and a plate of home fries and corned beef hash). What a good day already.
We slept in until 7am (!) this morning and ate our final 5 packets of oatmeal, banking on making it to a site tonight within range of the Allagash diner for Thursday morning. The food barrel is LIGHT (though the bag of trash inside is surprisingly weighty).
Today’s paddling began in a sea of fog – but at least it was completely windless. We said goodbye to our campsite neighbors at 5am and thanked Steve for everything he had done for us.
