North of the well-known White Mountains there are enormous tracks of wild forest that are full of great birds and other wildlife yet have few visitors. These dramatic landscapes shimmer with brilliant lakes and the bogs are frequented by secretive Moose. And the birds! In May the warblers should be in abundance and the northern specialties such as Canada Jays and Black-backed Woodpeckers will be nesting.

We will spend one night each in Errol, near the wild and unspoiled Lake Umbagog, and in Pittsburg’s stunningly beautiful Connecticut Lakes region. This will give you an introduction to these marvelous areas, including a chance to see some great birds and other wildlife. You owe it to yourself to experience this unique area with the guide who knows it best!
