Sliding Rock - Northern Country II

Three hours total, across the middle of 200,000+ acres of wild life sanctuary, we made it gate-to-gate through Baxter State Park in Maine. The road was purposely kept dirt and very narrow and sometimes muddy and overrun by neighboring streams which stretched a little too far that day. By the time we were done with this adventurous trek, our vehicle were plastered with mud up to the center of the doors! It was like we went on a deep safari ... well in fact we did!

Amazingly though, about half way through the trek, there was a place called Sliding Rocks. It was a serene watering hole over very slippery rocks. Many enjoyed the area by sliding down them as if in a water slide amusement park. The laughs were heard above the trees as young and old a like joined in on this refreshing natural spring. The water was perfect and only waist high. What a treasure nestled miles within.
