Evans Notch is a climbing area in the Caribou-Speckled Mountain Wilderness, part of the Saco Ranger District of the White Mountain National Forest in western Maine. The Forest Service manages the land. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Bethel show July highs around 79°F with lows near 57°F, and the station sits about 500 feet lower than the notch, so temperatures here run a little cooler. Several trails start close by. Overlook Loop is about 0.6 miles away and Stone House Trail about 0.9 miles. Shell Pond Bouldering, a climbing area, is roughly 1.7 miles off, and Cold River campground is about 1.5 miles away.
