In collaboration with Open Doors Outdoors, hikers will arrive Friday evening and camp thru Sunday morning. This grueling 10.8-mile hike to the summit of Katahdin will take place on Saturday leaving from and returning to Roaring Brook Campground. Each hiker will carry a tribute stone that honors a fallen Service Member of Maine.
The ascent to Baxter Peak will utilize Chimney Pond, Dudley, and Knife Edge. The descent will follow Saddle and Chimney Pond back to basecamp. This hike is geared towards the experienced hiker and limited spaces will be available.
