Hiking - Part 56

Acadia National Park

Most of Acadia National Park in Maine is located on rocky islands off the Maine coast, principally Mount Desert Island.  Above, Fishermen by John Currin, who spends summers on that island.  The painting is from a dream he had, showing himself (left) and his former partner Sean.

Mount Desert Island is not a desert island.  It has forests ...

and rocky shores ...

and hiking trails that lead up the slopes ...

to Cadillac Mountain (above).  Cadillac Mountain is not high (only 1530 feet), and there's a road to the summit as well as a trail, so it can be crowded, but it has great views of the ocean and the Maine coast.

Here is naturist Thomas Muther on the side of Cadillac Mountain.

And here he is on the Dorr Trail.

We end with a photo by Kevin Warth called Cadillac Mountain and Surrounding Forests, Acadia National Park.  Of course, it's really a human body, and I must say, I like the "forest".
