The Maine Island Trail Association is a membership organization dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of the wild islands of coastal Maine. With 182 trail sites and over two decades of community-building, stewardship and education, the organization maintains a model of sustainable recreation while creating America's first recreational water trail. The 375-mile waterway extends from the New Hampshire boarder to Machias Bay. Current members enjoy access to Trail properties for day use or overnight visits in return for observing low-impact techniques and guidelines outlined in MITA's annual 250-page trail guide. Boaters include kayak, sail and power. For more information contact MITA at 207-761-8225, info@mita.org or visit www.mita.org
