Note: Tettegouche Camp fills up fast. It is a three mile hike to an
old lumber barron vacation resort that is the only state owned
property of its kind. Call for reservations as soon as possible. On
the walk in at the top of the hill you will find the largest
population of Black-throated Blues in the state. The ambience at the
camp is great. E-mail me if you want specifics about any other site as
I have recorded multiple times at all of these sites.
