UPDATE** With a permit, today you can resume burning. The danger is moderate. Thanks!

If you’ve been issued a burn permit for today, unfortunately you aren’t allowed to burn. The fire danger is high. This applies to seasonal campfires as well. Thanks, Chief Pelletier

Bib #1 Gilles Harnois checking in from the Allagash, ME checkpoint (He arrived at 06:00AM) — where it was a balmy -15°F this morning. 🥶

Gilles says he LOVES this race, his dogs do too — "especially this year. It's the perfect temperature."

Sir. Your beard is a popsicle...

Little CanAm after party now. What a tremendous showing to our hardworking, welcoming community! The little CT snowmobiler was passed out after riding snowmobile with his family, and dad was having difficulty fueling. Popped the gate, and the rest stop was open. 😊

Members of our community step up often to support the Fort Kent Public Library. The latest example of that comes from Jake's Cleaning Service. Last week, Jake Robichaud donated a carpet-cleaning service for the library. He came in with his gear and expertise and made our carpets look like new. We needed the help, and he did this all as a donation. It is through the efforts of folks of the highest caliber that the library is able to pursue its mission. Thank you Jake!
