The Allagash - A Hard Path to Wilderness
Tim and Susan Caverly
12:00 Noon | Grace Episcopal Church
Tales of Woods & Waterways: a tour from Allagash Lake to to Allagash Falls.
Tim and Susan Caverly have spent years presenting programs and classes for
schools, libraries, and other organizations with humor and great respect
for waterways and the wilds of Maine.
In our program, they will take us on a virtual trip as we
travel from Allagash Lake to Allagash Falls. Along the way we will learn
about the beginning of the AWW as a Wild and Scenic River. We will hear of
efforts to create hiking trails, and learn about day use opportunities, as well
as learn about the impact human presence and use has on the region, and
how global warming and climate-change affect the area.
Tim Caverly has an extensive career working in Maine’s great outdoors. Tim
has a BS degree from UMaine, has worked as a ranger; spent 32 years
with the Dept of Conservation; and 18 years as supervisor of the Allagash
Wilderness Waterway. He and his wife Susan have presented programs
and classes for schools, libraries, and other organizations throughout the state
and published fourteen books with stories of the great Allagash River.
In their spare time, they breed and raise golden retrievers.
Program Host: Thankful Butler, Committee Chair
Hospitality: Christine McInnes, Joan Saba, Co-Chairs.
Michelle Grover, Louisa Edgerton
