The next destination on my Virtual Hike was Kokadjo, Maine.

The previous destination on my virtual hike was Chamberlain Bridge, Maine.

The virtual hike from Chamberlain Bridge to Kokajo was through the wilderness of Northern Maine. You can see from the terrain map that it passed by Baxter State Park and Mount Katahdin.

I found some pictures on Google maps from the top of the mountain and you can see over the area of the virtual hike.

The route was also close to the Debsconeag Lakes Wilderness Area.

The roads in this segment were not the best roads.  Most of them were graded dirt roads but there were a few blacktop sections.

The one thing that was in common was that the roads were lined on both sides by forests or waterways.

The destination for this segment of the Virtual Hike was little more than a few buildings and some area for camping. Along the lake were a row of cabins as this is a tourist area.

Kokadjo is know for being the moose watching capital of Maine.

There is an interesting sign to welcome you to Kokadjo.

Welcome to Kokadjo.

Population “Not Many”

I have been setting shorter distances between destinations for better motivation for my daily walking and so far it has been working. I have been walking more each day and have made good progress toward New Hampshire.

My current plan is to finish making my way across Maine, and then across New Hampshire and Vermont to New York. Perhaps I will find some interesting stops along the way.
