Fully updated and revised for the first time in 17 years, this map from the Appalachian Mountain Club, the Northeast’s most trusted resource for outdoor recreation, covers the entire 136-mile Saco River, from its source in the White Mountains of New Hampshire to the Gulf of Maine in the Atlantic Ocean.
Compiled from Geographic Information Systems (GIS) using highly accurate digital data, this durable, waterproof map is ideal for planning trips at home and will withstand years of rough-and-tumble use on the water.

• Information on river health, water quality, and wilderness ethics; plus, before-you-go safety, planning, and packing tips, as well as emergency contacts and fishing and PFD regulations for both Maine and New Hampshire
