This lake is so wonderful. Oakes Nubble can be seen from Rock Pond, and if you've had enough of Rock Pond, Midway Pond is close by. Whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if
it's for you then we recommend Sandy River, and the Brook Trail is a magnificent hiking trail close by. The skiing at Saddleback is good, and you're probably into lakes, Ledge Pond is one of those nearby.

Sandy River
| Today I finished a kayak trip from Strong, Maine and took out at Osoola Park in Norridgewock. It took a day and three quarters. The bridge in New Sharon is by far the largest waves just under the bridge. Tired arms went through that at the near end of day. The water after that is fast for about an hour after that. Need to pay attention.... |

I've been visiting Bugeye Pond for as long as I've been alive as my family owns one of the two camps on it and I've always found it to be a very pristine and relaxing place. Aside from snowmobile noise in the winter and traffic on route 27, I would have to say it is the most gorgeous place in Maine. As for the fishing, I haven't been there since I actually began fishing so I can't really attest to that. My parents were up there this past weekend and said there were people on the pond all weekend long, but they never saw anybody land a brookie despite the abundant rises.... |
