Link 1

Link 1 is a short cross-country ski route on the Maine River Trail East Branch Penobscot, a non-governmental organization-managed land unit in Maine. The route is an out-and-back of about 0.7 miles with a total elevation gain of 43 feet, so it is a nearly flat, low-impact outing. The route starts at a low point of 326 feet and reaches a high of 348 feet before returning. The steepest section is at about 0.26 miles in, with a grade of 3 percent. Because the climb is so small, the trip can be done quickly, and the trail is easy to link with other routes in the area. For skiing, River Trail lies about half a mile away and Silver Maple Trail about 0.7 miles off. Link 2 is about 0.9 miles away. Hikers can find the Long Logan Loop about 2 miles from the trail.
