Paid content for Visit Maine. National Geographic Explorer and photographer Kiliii Yüyan journeys through the lakes, mountains, rivers, and coastlines of Maine, meeting artists, makers, and community members whose lives are shaped by the land and water around them. His journey takes him to Rangeley, where he learns how to fly fish, and to Newry, where he discovers how Wabanaki canoe-making traditions are shaped by generations of knowledge and connection to the land. At Glidden Point Oyster Farms, Kiliii discovers why oyster farming is one of agriculture’s most sustainable industries. In Liberty, he visits a historic tool shop that has served Maine’s shipbuilders and craftspeople for generations, before tasting fresh lobster in Belfast. By the time he reaches the coast, Kiliii has a deeper understanding of the passion, resourcefulness, and community that define the state, seeing firsthand how Maine is truly forged by nature.
