This one’s up there…. Lol. Aroostook county, not far from Eagle lake… I came in from the Portage side, paid 11 dollars as a Maine resident at fish river checkpoint where they gave me a map and I followed the red river camps signs to Deboullie public lands where I parked at Deboullie east. |

This was a great 6.6 mile loop hike on a beautiful trail system. Ponds are super crystal clear, trails are well marked in blue blazes, neat rockslide to hike thru, awesome viewing tower on Deboullie mountain, several overlooks on Black mountain trail, old growth forest….. I can go on and on…. Indian pipes, many mushrooms, wildflowers… perfect day. I saw 1 other hiker on the whole loop, which I was surprised on a beautiful blue sky white puffy cloud Saturday… if you want solitude this is definitely the hike for you… only downside is getting there… I live in Southern Maine, took me 6.5 hours to get there. Well worth it for the magical day and memories ✌🻠|
