Backcountry Project

The purpose of the Backcountry Project is to identify, enhance, and showcase backcountry/long-distance human powered recreational opportunities throughout Maine. The project will pull together reliable data describing existing backcountry recreational opportunities, to work with organizations, landowners and others who are involved in managing or promoting such recreational opportunities. This project will help showcase the recreational areas for residents and visitors to help buttress the businesses and communities that benefit from the economic activity generated by this category of recreationists.
