As mentioned in another thread, we will be leaving a car at Abol Bridge outside of Baxter State Park and driving our 2nd car to Monson to start our hike. Obviously when we're all done 2 weeks later, we will drive to Monson again to pick up the car left there.
A route was suggested to me: take the Golden Road and then the Greenville Road over and down to Moosehead lake and then down Rte 15 to Monson. The route is described as very scenic - a "gem" (although I was warned to watch out for the pot holes, rocks and moose). I had not thought of this route. I had just thought we would take Rte. 11 from Millinocket down to Milo and then pick up Rte 15 in Guilford for Monson.
How do these routes compare for distance? Time? Scenary? Any other suggested routes? Sice we are driving down twice so we can go two different ways.
Thanks
