The power company upstream of where the Appalachian Trail crosses the Kennebec River
The power company upstream of where the Appalachian Trail crosses the Kennebec River in Maine, can open their flood gates at anytime, sending a deluge of water downstream that can sweep fording hikers downstream. Alice Ferrence drowned in 1985 while attempting to ford the Kennebec. The above is her final shelter registry entry … The Appalachian Trail Conservancy started the ferry service in response. Don’t ford the Kennebeck. Take the canoe with the white flash painted on the bottom! -- source link
