SUMMARY:Cancelled-Great Maine Outdoor Weekend – Snowshoe Hike at Androscoggin Riverlands State Park
DESCRIPTION:**Based on the latest forecast of wind chill values as low as -4 and gusts as high as 45 mph\, we are cancelling the Riverlands State Park Snowshoe Hike event on 2/9/19** \nWe will miss exploring beautiful Androscoggin Riverlands State Park with all of you\, please check out our other upcoming invents including the Spruce Mountain Sled-in and Full Moon Snowshoe at French Falls. \nCANCELLED: Hikers can choose to do the 2.2 mile loop to the picnic meadow and back\, or continue on to complete a 4-mile loop trek. Come ready to explore the beautiful Androscoggin Riverlands State Park! \nWhat to bring: snowshoes\, water and a snack\, warm clothing (layers suggested). Meet us at the Riverlands State Park parking lot located off Center Bridge Road at 10am. \nWe will have approximately 20 snowshoes available to borrow thanks to Maine IF&W. Please contact ALT in advance if you are interested in borrowing a pair: 782-2302 or info@androscogginlandtrust.org \nThe State Park was once a quaint Turner village that was destroyed in 1927 by rising waters caused by the construction of the Gulf Island dam. In the mid-1980s\, the potential sale of this vast parcel of land along the Androscoggin River in Turner left a cherished local landscape vulnerable to development. Compelled toward action\, a small group of area residents began brainstorming ways to preserve the land as open space and to maintain its longstanding public access. Drawing upon the expertise of statewide conservation organizations\, they succeeded in securing funds from the fledgling Lands for Maine’s Future Program to purchase the land\, which was then transferred to the Maine Bureau of Parks and Lands for management. Today\, the Androscoggin Riverlands State Park is the fifth largest in the state park system\, a 2675-acre expanse that offers miles of public trails\, river access\, year-round recreational opportunities\, and significant natural habitat for wildlife. This successful grassroots effort at land protection was the catalyst for the creation of the Androscoggin Land Trust (ALT) in 1989 as a vehicle for continuing conservation efforts in the region. \nHope to see you there! \nYou can check out these links for more information about Androscoggin Riverlands State Park: \nWebsite\nHistoric Brochure\nAndroscoggin Riverlands State Park Guide

The land was generously donated to the Androscoggin Land Trust in 2001 by the Purinton Family. The Preserve includes a 40-acre field and 100 acres of woods with frontage along Gillespie Brook owned by ALT as well as the privately-owned historic Purinton family home and adjacent 9-acres which ALT holds a conservation easement on.  Gillespie Brook\, empties into Little River which is good potential salmon habitat. Hay is still being harvested from the fields. Additional property information here. \nDirections: (GPS: 54-10 W Rd\, Bowdoin\, ME 04287) Follow Route 196 in Lewiston north to the intersection with South Lisbon Road in Lewiston.  Turn left onto South Lisbon Road and follow to intersection with Crowley Road.  Turn left onto Crowley Road and follow until the Town of Sabattus where it turns to Bowdoinham Road.   Continue on Bowdoinham Road until you cross into the Town of Lisbon where it becomes the Store Road.  At the intersection with West Road\, turn left onto West Road and follow past the field on the right.  When the fields turn to woods again\, look for a sandy informal parking area on the right\, which is adjacent to the trailhead.
