While hiking out to Owls Head yesterday I notices that there are some really great areas for possible packrafting. Has anyone here ever done this or heard of it?

The Pemi is probably in snowmelt flood about now, eh? I suppose it might be packraftable at this time of year, but otherwise the sport would seem to be limited to the larger valley streams – Saco, Androscoggin, lower Amonoosuc. Better prospects for remote rafting in northern Maine, methinks; I've been considering a run at the Allagash, possibly linking with a chain-of-lakes route that would roughly parallel the AT thru the 100 Mile Wilderness, with occasional white-blaze portages. Or so goes the lead-in to a bigger pipedream – "aqua blazing" from Maine to Georgia. :)
what a trip it would be in late April – early May. Yesterday the rivers were almost waist deep of freezing cold water so it would be on hell of a trip.
By the by, you just sent me a pair of Levigators and they worked perfectly yesterday :)
