Fred, you really shoul go back but don't expect to find what you experienced there before. Everything has changed. Nothing is the same except the woods and the water and the land. Log drives ended in Maine in 1974 and the huge log dams are gone... replaced with concrete and steel and aluminum.
I was snorkeling in the West Branch of the Penobscott in the pool below Ambejackmocomus Falls about fifteen years ago and littering the bottom in ten or fifteen feet of water were dozens of pulp logs from the earlier days of log drives on the river.
