Machias Air Line Rips

Well back from a visit to Air Line Rips on the Machias River. Good crowd and a few getting fish, including a 16" brookie. I am seriously disappointed in the Department of Conservation at these fee camp sites. The fire pits are run down, the tables are either rotted to the ground or beyond repair. The outhouse maintenance is poor. What a wonderful site, but budget cuts have taken away the ranger I guess. It wasn't long before a ranger was in to remind people to leash the dog, although no one minded. But as for care or toilet paper, that was out of the question. DOC needs to spend some money or create a Friends of the Machias group to care for these sites.
