QUESTION: What is the only native coniferous tree in Maine that drops all its needles every autumn after turning a brilliant gold?

ANSWER: ❓❓❓

Trivia night TONIGHT at 6pm led by the one and only, Celeste. (At least one round may or may not be fall foliage related…)

Pairs well with a Mossy Ledge Spirits Espresso Martini or Shipyard Pumpkin Head 😉

See ya soon!

Your daily moment of peace from the Dead River in West Forks, ME.

The foliage is about as good as it gets this year and so worth a cruise up the Old Canada Road National Scenic Byway.

There is a reason this drive is one of just 150 National Scenic Byways across the entire country.

Come see it for yourself, and make sure to stop by for a bite and a brew here at Hawks Nest Lodge & Restaurant and IRONBOUND OUTDOORS

Fantastic food, panoramic river views, cozy lodge rooms, and professional Reg. Maine Guides at your service, make us a perfect home base for your Fall adventures in Maine!

And just like that, another summer is behind us! The maple trees are starting to turn, and things are shaping up to be a spectacular autumn up here along the Dead River.

THANK YOU so much to everyone who stopped by, stayed a few nights, shared some laughs, and made some great memories with us this summer! You all are truly what make this place so special!

We're not going anywhere, though - don't you worry!

We'll soon settle into some routine Fall Hours, but for this week we're just making a minor change:

Wednesday: 4pm-8pm, everything else stays the same: 11a-8pm.

Let us know in the comments - what was your FAVORITE meal with us this summer? Anything you'd like to see on the Fall Menu?

See ya soon!
