I recently got to spend a late September weekend in Baxter State Park to hike Mount Katahdin. We brought our A-Liner camper and stayed at Roaring Brook Campground. The foliage was just starting to pop and the crisp weather was perfect for hiking. We hiked up the Helon Taylor to Knife’s Edge up to Baxter Peak. We then took the Saddle Trail over to NW Basin Trail to summit Hamlin Peak. We took the Hamlin Ridge trail back down to our campsite. After 12 miles on the trail, we enjoyed a fire and well deserved beer back at camp.
