5-21-2010 Latest update-Carter Brook Trail off the Heritage Trail at Glendale Siding is closed due to landowner request. In order to get to Carter Brook, please continue on Heritage Trail to St. John and bear left after the American Dream to the Lincoln Trail and follow signs to Carter Brook. From there, you can go to Eagle Lake or Soldier Pond and back to Fort Kent. Hopefully, this is temporary so your cooperation is necessary. Thank You and bear with us.
