- The Way We Live is a short film that was presented at the Maine Outdoor Film Festival. Featuring whitewater kayaking in Maine, The Way We Live is a compilation of video captured by several different whitewater kayakers across the state. The film was compiled and edited by Taylor Walker solely for the Maine Outdoor Film Festival as a way to shine some light on the whitewater community of Maine. Maine is a special place, full of awesome people and majestic rivers, if you have never traveled to Maine it's worth the journey. We hope you enjoy this film!
Big thanks to those that contributed footage to this project and a special thanks to Miles Puleio, Mitch Noddin, Mike McVey and Pat Mullin for helping with the final edit and putting in some late nights to make it all come together.
A special thanks to Archnemesis for being the only band that didn't demand absurd amounts of money for use of their tracks in this film. Their music is awesome, look them up!

the name of my boat growing up was "Lucky Eddy", if I did this stuff it would have to be called "Crazy Eddy"!!! Unfreakin' Real!!!
Great paddling, excellent production. Thanks!!
Nice playgrounds in Maine! Well edited film.
These guys could run the spillway below Pensacola Dam at Disney, OK. Awesome.
I swear I've seen that section of woods trail where those two moose cross. Great video
Looks like a lot of fun!
Good Show!
Maine has some juice! Some burly scenery too. Cheers!
Maine has got some choppy rivers boy I had a blast on a few .
Man, this makes me miss my home state. Don’t miss the mosquitos n black flies tho! Sick vid!
The sound track alone was worth 3 views. Well edited and the water looks much fun. I love thus video.

Would love to know the various segments on which river it was filmed.
Real nice. 1:35 doing some white water on an inflatable turtle. I have done that before
Water the colour of tea, big water waves you can surf all day, some sendy waterfalls, rapids that look like the rinse cycle of a giant washing machine... I think I'm going to have to visit Maine before I die. When are the best flows, and how hard is it for an outsider to find people to paddle with?
Great video! Liked and subscribed.
Spring for creeks, but our rivers run all through the summer
Kayak es life
Have you done the Dead River in the spring at 10,000 plus. Hit Poplar Hills Falls on the left side and see what you think next time your out. I have and it's a long ride with some keeper holes. Thanks for the film. Nice job
pbr2424 The Dead is one of our favorites. I like to stay out of fry-o-lator in Poplar Falls if I can :)
MaineRiverLife Good thinking. You guys are real.....
Scared me to death! Wish I were 65 yrs younger, How can I say please be careful...but that's the point,right? Please agree..
If anyone sees a "Clean Energy Corridor" ad playing over this film please know that we DO NOT ENDORSE THOSE LYING BASTARDS! We don't get to choose the ads that play...
I hope no one ever tries to huck it off moxie falls.
SSEND IIT!
Are the playspots in this video well known? Would love some beta on that wave at 1:30. Looks great like one of the best waves this side of Canada.
kayakinrob That's the "Madison Wave" It's in Madison, ME. Look for 17,000 CFS on the Kennebec at Madison USGS gage. 17,000 is the minimum for eddy access, goes as low as 15k however. Get's really good between 19k-22k. Starts to wash above 24k, look for "Mitochondria" to come in further down river at flows higher than when Madison is good.
Awesome, thanks. Stoked to check it out when it comes in.
What is that thing the guy is laying on and where do I buy one haha
What's the name of some of these rivers and creeks?
There are many, but to rattle off a few, the West Branch Penobscot, Penobscot Dryway, East Branch Piscataquis, Sandy Stream, Kennebec, Austin Stream, Cold Stream, Wilson Stream, East Branch Penobscot, Gulf Hagas, Webster Stream, a lot of the play shots are on the Penobscot and Kennebec closer to the ocean where they are high volume.
Maine boaters ..like know other....
