Acadia National Park - September 2006

Eleven members of the ISAEDHS were able to travel to Acadia National park in Maine for a week in September, 2006.

First photo is the relief map of the park at the visitor center. Interspersed among the others are photos along the shore at Woodland Park Cottages.
Sept. 26 is the hike up Cadillac Mountain, and the crowd for the delicious mussel dinner.
Sept. 27, we went up Sargent Mountain, with a very short side trip to Cedar Swamp Mountain.
Sept. 28, we did the Great Head loop walk from Sand Beach, then went up Gorham Mtn. from the north, starting on the Beehive trail. On the way down Gorham, we backtracked to see part of the Cadillac Cliffs side trail.
Then we walked back to Sand Beach along the shore path. The clouds were low until we started down Gorham, but never really lifted until the end of the day.
Later in the afternoon, we were near the Stables, so we went up The Triad and then Day Mountain, both short and pretty quick to do.
Sept. 29 - just a morning panorama at the shore before it rained.

Click on a thumbnail for a larger view, and use previous/next on the photo pages to go forward and back through the pictures.

Display size options are small, medium, large and original. Click on original on the panoramas for a larger view. If you have a slow internet service, click on medium on an individual photo and then all the others should display at that size.
Click on a image below to get started.

ALSO, NOTE THE NEW SLIDESHOW OPTION IN THE UPPER RIGHT CORNER. WORKS BETTER IN INTERNET EXPLORER THAN FIREFOX/NETSCAPE (but does work in an IE tab in Firefox).

All photos in all galleries are copyright by the owner and are not to be copied for any commercial purpose.
Members of the ISAEDHS are of course welcome to copy them!
