Maine- Acadia National Park

Acadia National Park-
Bar Harbor, Maine 
DOV- May  20, 2010

Visited while staying the week at Bar Harbor at Mt Desert Narrows.  This is one of the more beautiful parks we visited.  We spent probably 4 hours in the park itself, and need to go back to pick up stamps I missed, as I didn't know the exact location.  We did visit Thunder Hole, but missed the stamp.  The roads were closed for part of the park, and I think that meant we missed one or two more.  Also, it appears there is one at Isle au Haut to get.  The weather on our visit was clear, but it was windy and about 60 degrees, sweatshirt weather.  Lots of tour busses full of folks from the cruise ship anchored in the water.  Since we'll be back to Maine again to pick up St Croix and the App trail, as well as a revisit to Roosevelt Campobello, we'll be sure to revisit this park again.  One of our all time favorites. 


 
A map of the park- We got to Jordan Pond, missed a stamp site at Blackwoods Campground. 

View from the top of Cadillac Mountain-  Big cruise ship at anchor in the bay, it left as we returned back to town.
