LOCATION:This section of the St. George River begins near downtown Searsmont and ends 5.5 miles to the south at the ME-105 bridge in Appleton. Put in near the ME-131 bridge 100 yards west of the US Post Office and 200 yards east of the Fraternity Village Store. A dirt lot east of the river provides plenty of parking and easy access to the river. The Ghent Road Bridge\, about 2.5 miles into the trip\, provides an alternative put-in or emergency take-out\, although access is difficult due to the steep riverbank. The normal take-out is 3 miles farther down the river on the right\, just after passing beneath the ME-105 bridge. Parking is available in a dirt lot just uphill from the take-out.
