Baxter State Park

Baxter State Park is a large wilderness area in Maine, covering over 200,000 acres. The park is home to Mount Katahdin, the state's highest peak, and features many bodies of water, including Grand Lake Matagamon, Webster Lake, and Nesowadnehunk Lake. The park has a diverse population of wildlife, including moose, black bears, and white-tailed deer. Visitors can enjoy hiking, camping, and exploring the park's many trails and waterways. The park is rustic and without electricity, and visitors are expected to carry out all trash and leave no trace. The park's philosophy is 'wilderness first, recreation second,' and visitors are responsible for their own safety and impact on the environment
