The biggest upset of the trip was not being able to complete the Precipice trail hike. This was the one trail we picked out to complete while visiting. Unfortunately, the trail is closed from late spring until mid-August because falcons nest there. Really?! That’s like the entire tourist season! Platinum pissed. But it just means we will have to return sometime in the fall.<\/p>\n

Acadia was placed in my heart as a small child when my parents would tell me stories of their travels to the park before they had kids. I am beyond thankful I finally received the opportunity to go. What a fantastic and magical place it was.<\/p>\n
