Hiking the Cadillac Mountain South Ridge Trail
Cadillac Mountain in Acadia NP is the highest point in the park as well as the highest point on the US Atlantic coast.
The South Ridge Trail is among the longest in the park, taking in excellent views of forest, surrounding mountains, and the Cranberry Islands in the Atlantic Ocean. The summit is often crowded with tourists who access it via the Park Loop Road. But leave the summit and you'll leave the crowds behind.

South Ridge Trail out of Blackwoods Campground. Roundabout 8 miles round trip from Loop B. I’ve posted this hike before, but it’s such a nice walk/hike/run that we do it nearly every visit. This trip we counted Max and Zoë have done this hike six times, and they’re now 12 and 10 years old.

Cadillac Summit, Cadillac Mountain, Acadia National Park, Maine, United States, North America
Cadillac Mountain is a mountain located on Mount Desert Island, within Acadia National Park. With an elevation of 1,528 feet (470 m), its summit is the highest point in Hancock County and the highest within 25 miles (40 km) of the shoreline of the North American continent between the Cape Breton Highlands, Nova Scotia and Mexican peaks 180 miles (290 km) south of the Texas border. The area first was inhabited by the Wabanaki people. In the fall of 1604, Samuel de Champlain observed a high-notched island composed of seven or eight mountains rising to bare-rock summits from slopes of birch, fir, and pine. Over four centuries later, the area remains essentially the same. The park is home to some 40 different species of mammalian wildlife. Among these are red and gray squirrels, chipmunks, white-tailed deer, moose, beaver (Castor canadensis), porcupine, muskrats, foxes, coyote, bobcats, and black bears. Many other marine species have been observed in the surrounding area and waters. Excavations of old Indian sites in the Mount Desert Island region have yielded remains of the native mammals. Bones of wolf, beaver, deer, elk, Gray seal (Halichoerus grypus), the Indian dog, and Sea Mink (Neovison macrodon), as well as large numbers of raccoon, lynx, wolf, muskrat, and deer. Although beaver were trapped to extinction on the island, two pairs of beaver that were released in 1920 by George B. Dorr at the brook between Bubble Pond and Eagle Lake have repopulated it. The large fire in 1947 cleared the eastern half of the island of its coniferous trees and permitted the growth of aspen, birch, alder, maple and other deciduous trees which enabled the beaver to thrive. Species that used to inhabit the island include the mountain lion (or puma) and the gray wolf. It is thought that these predators have been forced to leave the area due to the dramatic decrease in small prey and proximity to human activity.

Cadillac Mountain Summit - Acadia National Park - Maine - USA
Sommet du Mont Cadillac - Parc National Acadia - Maine - États Unis
Coordonnées GPS: 44°20'58.9N 68°13'47.2W
Culminant à 466 m, le mont Cadillac est considéré comme étant le plus haut sommet américain donnant sur l'océan Atlantique.
Des sentiers pédestres balisés mènent à son sommet. En ce qui nous concerne, nous y sommes allés en voiture, étant donné le peu de temps disponible lors de notre séjour.
Pour atteindre le sommet du Mont Cadillac, nous avons parcouru la Cadillac Summit Rd, une route sinueuse de près de 6 km qui offre plusieurs belvédères permettant d'admirer tour à tour les lacs, montagnes ainsi qu'une grande partie du littoral.
La route prend fin au sommet. On y retrouve une petite boutique ainsi que plusieurs espaces de stationnement.
Un sentier a été aménagé et offre de magnifiques points de vue sur le parc, la baie et ses îles ainsi que sur l'océan Atlantique.

Fast Bike Ride Down Cadillac Mountain - Acadia National Park
Rode my bike down from the top of Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park near Bar Harbor Maine. There is a slight uphill at the beginning, then the full-on downhill starts ate about 1:08. I may have been exceeding the speed limit slightly. This was on my homemade cyclocross/gravel bike with CX tires. I would have loved to have had my road bike with race tires. Maybe next time. Not knowing the corners, I actually took it relatively easy, not wanting to fly off the side of the mountain. The video was shot with my Sony point and shoot camera taped to the handlebars with electrical tape. LOL!
BTW, I know my top speed and I am taking the 5th.
FYI, I did this at 8:30am. They recommend cyclists who want to ride the mountain come early in the morning or later in the day when car traffic is light.

A Drive Down Cadillac Mountain Acadia National Park Maine

Acadia National Park / Cadillac Mountain Trip, Maine - July 2016 | Sony RX10 II
I recently went on a trip with friends and co-workers to Acadia National park along the coast of Maine. We went with the purpose of taking photos and stayed up for 24 hours to witness sunrise and sunset on Cadillac mountain, day shooting at Jordan Pond, and astral photography at Thunder Hole.
I took the task of filming the trip, shot entirely with my Sony RX10 II. Despite accidentally leaving my 64GB UHS-1 card at home and having to use a 16GB spare, I still managed to capture a good amount of footage to provide context for the photography taken by Travis, Joel, Yelena, and Nick during the trip. The footage is largely left ungraded because I wasn't shooting in S-LOG2, and time constraints in editing.
Enjoy the video and the accompanying music, Amor Fati by Washed Out.
