rafting in Maine's Dead River

I know the writing in December about the whitewater rafting in the Dead River in May is like to talk about Ski in August, but still, the spring will come eventually and we can plan.

The map and the information you’ll need to plan your class III to V of white water rafting at the dead river in main can be found on the official site on

The Dead River, which flows from Flagstaff Lake, offers the longest continuous stretch of Class III to V whitewater in the East. The sixteen-mile trip begins below Grand Falls, and runs through rapids appropriately named the Minefield, Humpty Dumpty, Elephant Rock Rapids, Mile Long Rapids and culminating at the famous Big Poplar Falls and the confluence with the Kennebec River in The Forks. The Dead River releases high water only ten times a season, six of which are in the spring, May 5, 12, and 27 and June 2, 9 and 17.
