“You have the best job in the world,” the paddlers would tell me as we chatted on a flat, calm Eagle Lake in the middle of August. “How do you get a job like this?” they would ask. As I motored slowly away, I said to myself, “They don’t know how tough it can be working here!” Then I remembered. Eventually the biting flies go away and the Waterway visitors stay. One of the best things about my job is chatting with anglers, paddlers and day visitors. ~ Kevin Brown, chief ranger, Allagash Wilderness Waterway
