* Measured using Google Earth's ruler function along the route that I took (to my best recollection). This is longer than the "official" 740 mainly due to the trip via Allagash Lake (although an ill-advised carry route from Clyde Pond (day 11), missing the entrance to Spencer Stream (day 19), and a side-trip to Lobster Lake (day 22) contributed to this figure).
