Standing in the Penobscot River watershed and Baxter State Park, The Traveler is well known in the lumber industry dating back to times when canoes still traversed the river. The mountain is Maine's eighth tallest peak and, though known for its loop hike, the name comes from the way the mountain seems to travel along with river guests. Usually, these tall peaks are packed during the right time of year, this one is less crowded though, making it perfect for those looking for solitude.
