We spent last night at the east end of Flagstaff Lake with friends at a beautiful off-the-grid hut that is part of the Maine Huts and Trails initiative. This site has only been open for a year, and it is spectacular.
We could see south across frozen Flagstaff Lake to Mt Bigelow (above), and north to several of the smaller mountains nearby (top picture).
There is a two mile ski in to the huts - no problem for the girls. Great trail, easy-going but well planned with lots of turns and gentle rolling hills. Great views of the lake on the way in, but enough trees to protect us from the strong winds.

Arguably, the girls favorite part was the bunk beds. Excitement! They spent a lot of time checking them out.
We had a fantastic trip, and look forward to returning again...maybe this year if it ever snows??
