Where in the woods am I? Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge

And the answer is… Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge in Wells! The winner, drawn randomly from all who guessed the location correctly, is Wanda Greatorex of Corinth! Enjoy the $50 L.L.Bean gift card, Wanda. And thanks to everyone for playing. I will be on vacation next week, enjoying my time off – paddling, lounging in the hammock and having fun with Oreo. So there won’t be another “Where in the Woods” Trail ID contest for 2 weeks!

Here’s the original contest post:

The prize for this week’s “Where in the Woods” trail ID contest is a $50 gift card to L.L.Bean! All you have to do is guess what trail in southern Maine I explored with my sister, niece and mother recently…

Here’s how it works

The “Where in the Woods” game is simple. Look at the photo gallery at the bottom of this page, and based on the photos, guess where I was in Maine, being as specific as possible. Then enter your best guess in the graphic right here:

Of the people who guess the trail (or trails) correctly, we will randomly draw a winner for the L.L.Bean gift card, which will be sent to the winner in the mail right away!

I post this “Where in the Woods” Trail ID contest each Monday; and on Tuesdays, I reveal the answer and post a “1-minute hike” video and trail description of the hike, including detailed driving directions so you can go have your own outdoor adventure.

I like to mix it up. Sometimes I hike easy forest trails, other weeks you’ll see me atop some of Maine’s tallest mountains, and I try to travel all over the state.
