Allagash Wilderness Waterway

NRCM’s work to protect the Allagash goes back to its earliest days. This campaign brought NRCM's founders together at a time when the river was threatened by dams and destructive forest practices. Helping to create the Allagash Wilderness Waterway is one of NRCM’s most important and enduring achievements.
