Beech Mtn Hike - Acadia

  • Place: Beech Mtn, Acadia National Park
  • Trailhead: Long Pond parking lot, south
  • Hikers with OMMB: T and J
  • Technical Level: Climbing up the west side of the loop was pretty steep.  The east side down was a real nice trail!
  • Wildlife: Surprisingly none... Jesse's Bear Bell may have something to do with that!  Speaking of bears, we were told by a park ranger that the last bear on the island had been killed when hit by a tourist's car.  Damn tourists. :)

Looking back at the trailhead.

Tidbits:  GREAT 360 from the summit.  Also a fire tower, but unfortunately access to the top of the tower is locked.















Happy Trails,
OMMB
