Penobscot River, Maine
In the shadow of Katahdin, Maine’s tallest peak, the Penobscot will get your heart pumping from the first spalsh. With class III-V rapids like Exterminator, Staircase, and The Cribworks, the Penobscot satisfies double black diamond cravings through the warm months. If you’re feeling really tough tackle the triple crown of Maine rafting: the Dead, Penobscot, and Kennebec Rivers.
