Maine Adventure Travel Guide
Perfect Weekend
I recently went on a rafting trip with my brother for his bachelor party… it was one of the best weekends I’ve had in a long time
Awesome Bachelor Party
We had such a good time with Northern Outdoors for my bachelor party. We did whitewater rafting on the Kennebec river and it was a blast.
Kennebec Turbine Test Releases – 2016 Dates
There are ONLY 4 special Turbine Test releases a year – with 8000 CFS (cubic feet per second) of water flowing down river. That’s almost twice the normal water levels of Kennebec rafting trips of 4800CFS! This means BIG water – the biggest water in the Northeast, and the east coast!
The Maine Beer Trail and Kennebec River Brewery
When you have two distinct passions (in this case, rafting and handcrafted brews), it’s quite a feat of organization and dedication to combine them at the same time, in the same place. But that’s exactly what Jim Yearwood did here at Northern Outdoors when he opened up a microbrewery right at our resort. In 1997, the Kennebec River Brewery tapped its first handcrafted microbrew and the rest is delicious history.

How to Enjoy Your First Spring Rafting Experience
After winter, the rivers are flowing strong and playful, thanks to slowly melting snowpack. In fact, early spring runoff provides some of the most exciting whitewater in the Northeast. Before you head out, there are a few spring rafting tips I want to pass on to you.
