    September 20, 1983: I crossed the South Branch of the Carrabassett River at another wide, shallow ford amid a lush forest filled with dense undergrowth and began the ascent of the Crockers. I took my first break of the day a mile later, after a moderate climb to the Appalachian Trail junction with the Crocker Cirque Campsite side trail.

    September 20, 1983, 43 years ago today: I really wanted to hike the thirteen tough miles over four major summits today and make it to the Post Office in Stratton before it closed this evening. I made a special effort to reach Maine 27 early, in case I needed to wait a long time for a ride.

  3. I have already met my fundraising goal for Dan Osborn.

    But you can support four other Senate candidates through the Democratic Victory Fund.

    Those candidates are Adam Hamilton in Kansas, Josh Turek in Iowa, James Talarico in Texas, and Troy Jackson in Maine.

  12. 🧵1/3
    September 19, 1983, 43 years ago today: The grades moderated along the crest, and most of the final mile to the summit was a series of gradually-ascending terraces. Dark, soggy tundra was interspersed with ledges of naked rock dabbed with lichen. Masses of ground-hugging plants spread out like thick shag carpets while scrub spruce shivered in the gale above them.

  13. 🧵1/5
    September 19, 1983, 43 years ago today: A thin, halfhearted drizzle began to fall. The first couple of miles of trail consisted of short, steep climbs connecting long, broad plateaus. The Appalachian Trail passed several slab caves formed by more fallen rocks from the cliffs above, a bog, and two very nice mountain ponds.

  14. #Maine Sues Major #OilCompanies Over ‘Ongoing Deception’ About #ClimateChange

    The lawsuit follows similar suits by eight other states and the District of Columbia against major oil companies, all alleging complicity in climate change. Those states are New Jersey, California, Delaware, Minnesota, Vermont, Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island

    "The state of Maine has filed a lawsuit against five major oil companies and their top lobbying group, accusing them of carrying out a decades-long disinformation campaign about climate change and their contribution to it in order to maximize profits.

    "Maine Attorney General Aaron Frey, in his lawsuit filed Tuesday in state court, accuses Exxon Mobil, Shell, Chevron, BP, Sunoco and the American Petroleum Institute of withholding internal knowledge about fossil fuels’ catastrophic effects all while spinning public doubt.

    "'For over half a century, these companies chose to fuel profits instead of following their science to prevent what are now likely irreversible, catastrophic climate effects,' said Frey in a statement. 'In so doing, they burdened the State and our citizens with the consequences of their greed and deception.'"
