Aerial - Reversing Falls Park - Pembroke Maine
PEMBROKE, Maine - A curious Hawk came out of nowhere at Reversing Falls Park (a municipal nature park) in Pembroke, Maine. Exploring in our Jeep Wrangler we followed the Leighton Point Road to Mahar Point. The falls are at the northern point of a narrows separating Dennys Bay from Cobscook Bay in far eastern Maine. We found deer, seals, hawks and much more on our day trip.
The narrows are subject to a reversal of current twice a day, due to the area's unusually high tides in the Bay of Fundy region. The park is also well suited for wildlife viewing as many migratory birds pass through this park.
The area in the park vicinity is also archaeologically sensitive, as the site of Native American settlements in the area's prehistory.

The Reversing Falls Park is a municipal park in Pembroke, ME. The Actual name of the falls are Cobscook Falls. There are a few places where the falls reverse as the tides change. This park was very nice and free. I do believe that they changed their policy and do not allow overnight camping. I was not disturbed though when I was there, and really you need to see the falls reverse from mid tide to mid tide so to experience the full beauty of the falls you need to stay there for a while. There was no services at the park beside a fire ring at certain spots.

Maine's Reversing Falls
Along the coast of Maine are places where, twice each day, rivers flow backwards and then forwards in an everchanging diorama of freshwater, saltwater, rollocking rapids and tranquil calms. There are eight such “tidal” or “reversing” falls, found where rivers and bays make a narrow passage to meet the sea.

BOONDOCKING at MOOSEHEAD LAKE IN NORTHERN MAINE
We finally get to explore some boondocking in Northern Maine. Moosehead Lake is the biggest lake east of the Mississippi River and the biggest fresh water lake in Maine. Maine has Public reserved land much like you would find in the west on BLM land. We camp at two free campgrounds: Jewett Cove and Cowan Cove. Both of these free campgrounds are right on the water and the views are spectacular. Wildlife is in abundance! Moose, Bear, Deer, Bald Eagles, Loons and other assorted water fowl. Be prepared to swim, kayak, canoe, hike, fish and plenty of off-road opportunities.

An Abenaki Indian village was once located on the north side of the Androscoggin River, but had been abandoned before its subsequent English settlement. In 1769, the township was granted as Sudbury-Canada by the Massachusetts General Court to Josiah Richardson of Sudbury, Massachusetts and others (or their heirs) for services at the Battle of Quebec in 1690. It was first settled in 1774 when Nathaniel Segar of Newton, Massachusetts started clearing the land.
The Revolutionary War, however, delayed many grantees from taking up their claims. Only 10 families resided at Sudbury-Canada when it was plundered on August 3, 1781 during the last Indian attack in Maine. Two inhabitants, Benjamin Clark and Nathaniel Segar, were abducted and held captive in Quebec until the war's conclusion, after which the community grew rapidly. On June 10, 1796, Sudbury-Canada Plantation was incorporated as Bethel,[5] the name taken from the Book of Genesis and meaning House of God.[6][7]
In 1802, a trade road (now Route 26) was completed from Portland to Errol, New Hampshire, passing through Bethel and bringing growth. More settlers and businesses arrived. Crops were planted on fertile intervales and meadows formerly cultivated by Indians. Bethel became one of the best farming towns in the state, especially for hay and potatoes. In winter, farmers found work logging, with the lumber cut at sawmills operated by water power from streams. Other manufacturers produced flour, leather and harnesses, furniture, boots and shoes, carriages, and marble and granite work. The Bethel House, a large hotel, was built in 1833.
