This August 2006 canoe trip included several days of modest rapids, portages and camping. Holeb Falls and a friendly river otter were among the sights along the way. Evidence of moose was on display on a trail near near the Spencer Rips rapids.

The Moose River Bow Trip
The 34-mile trip began at Holeb Pond in Holeb Township and ended by crossing adjoining Attean Pond and visiting its beaches in Attean Township. Both townships,
accessible from U.S. Route 201 in Jackman, are in Somerset County. This three and one-half day trip avoided the long portage from Attean Pond to Holeb Pond to complete the “bow.”
