But Mr PotatoChip said he doesn't remember any races. He does however, remember this last log drive and even knew (or rather his dad knew) some of the guys in the video.
The rivers are quite nice now but yeah, I heard that they were terrible back in the day. I think it was the Androscoggin that even caught fire at one point...
Maybe someone else here knows about the races. 
As an aside, I heard that people still occasionally find submerged logs in Moosehead to this day. Apparently, they are worth a lot of money. Something to do w/how the wood has aged in the water, I guess.
