Pine Cones612 views2012-10-13
Acadia National Park, Maine, USA
44.3114,-68.3454
These pine cones were unusually photogenic, against the bright blue sky. This photo was taken very near the summit of Beech Mountain (just north of the summit), and, I believe, within sight of the fire lookout station.Oct 31, 2012

Spring Trail Meets Carriage Road541 views2012-10-12
Acadia National Park, Maine, USA
44.3212,-68.2605
Stu and I took the Spring Trail up as far as the steps (shown here) go, decided it wasn't for us (at least given the amount of time we had left to hike), and ended up going the other way on the Spring Trail (toward the Jordan Pond House). This photo was taken near the southeastern-most extent of Mount Penobscot.Oct 31, 2012

Brilliant Autumn Color314 views2012-10-12
Acadia National Park, Maine, USA
44.3408,-68.2580
For some reason, we found some of the most brilliant autumn colors in both 2012 and 2011 just northeast of Jordan Pond, along the trail that goes up to the saddle between the "Bubbles." This spectacular scene consists of maple, birch (aspen?), and spruce (?) trees.Oct 31, 2012
