Mount Desert Island (day 2, afternoon)

Found some free wifi and non-free coffee at The Independent Cafe in Bar Harbor (they also have some amazing blueberry muffins), then set off to hike up Dorr and Cadillac Mountains (1270 and 1530 ft above sea level, respectively). Our route is highlighted in neon pink here:

route

I'll generously say this was 8.2 miles.


boardwalk

Now this is my kind of hiking.


path

It was just a bit sunny today.


stairs

The ladder trail had lots of stone stairs, which were fantastically well maintained.

View from the top of Dorr Mtn.


failure

I really suck at taking self-portraits.

It was a very decent hike, and we were both pretty gimpy at the end.
