Service Description
This 130-mile route crosses the Gassabias Portage as a bridge between the St. Croix River watershed and the Penobscot River watershed. Not for the “light-hearted” adventurer, this native American canoe route begins in Vanceboro, Maine on the popular St. Croix River. Most finish a St. Croix River trip at Kellyland where the EMCT continues westward into the amazing Grand Falls flowage, and across Big Lake to the first of several portages. The south end of fourth Machias Lake presents the 3-mile Gassabius Portage through old-growth forest, bogs, muck, and more. This is a crux and the last major portage of the trip. After the portaging is done its Nicatous Lake, and a class I-II whitewater section down Nicatous Stream to the Passadumkeag River, Soponic pond, and finally the mighty Penobscot River where we end our trip in the town of Passadukeag.
