What the Locals Know
The best viewing months are usually May, June, September, October, and December. Although group tours by car or boat can certainly prove satisfying, the most intimate way to encounter moose in their habitat is to glide quietly in a kayak or canoe. To find prime viewing spots, check with the Moosehead Lake Region Chamber of Commerce (mooseheadlake.org), or just ask at any outdoor outfitter, and let your paddles bring you closer than you can believe.
