May 1st, 2009.......Hello Friends of Nahmakanta...! this is our first edition of our new blog. Everyone's a blogger these days, so why not us. We're gonna try to update it at least once a week, no more than a paragraph or two, with the emphasis on basic camp information and natural observations (fish, birds, moose, air, sky, wind, insects, etc) from the Nahmakanta area, made by either us (Don, Angel, and kids) or our guests. Hopefully a few good photos, too. Absolutely no religion or politics, we promise ! (for that you've got MSNBC and FOX, right ?) We'd really like to hear back from any of you, at..... info@nahmakanta.com

This has been the perfect combination of quiet, great food,

physical challenge, relaxation on the front porch rocker,

comfortable cozy cabins.....  hot, clean showers, privacy when you want it, but friendly and fun conversations at meal times...!

....Gorgeous views of mountains, water, sky and stars.....

the almost spiritual calm and quiet on the trails.....

If I had to name my favorite aspect of this experience it would be the feeling of being like a kid again....Get up, get your packed lunch and go play all day.....then come home, clean up and wonder what's for dinner knowing it is going to be something delicious.....

and then there are those unbelievable, warm cinnamon rolls with all that melted butter....!

....we came here to see a moose and we saw several everyday.

This is truly a magnificant place to share with our family.  We had lots of fun exploring, fishing , swimming and just staring at the beautiful lake..... Don and Angel's hospitality is exceptional, five star meals 3 times a day and many nice chats about this area.  You will see us again........!

   Hello Don and Angel....                                                                  6/16/2009                      

When Lisa and I booked our trip we had only hoped that

after 21 years of being away that things had not changed

too much. As the world changes and things never seem to

stay the same, not all change is good.  Everyone knows  

the old saying you can never go back. Well boy is that

wrong ! From the minute we arrived at camp it was like

stepping back in time to 1988.  The camps looked great

and although a few modern conveniences were added they

did not detract from the remote lake experience at all. 

  It was great to be back. As far as the fishing goes I

don’t know why but it sure seemed like the fishing was

better than it was all those years ago. We caught more

salmon and trout than we could count in the brooks and

the remote ponds were outstanding!  It was truly a surprise

to have such great fishing after all these years!  You folks

do a great job at maintaining that true remote pond experience.

 I promise you it will not be another 20 years before we get back!

Thanks again for everything as we have started a new

set of memories!
