Acadia National Park
Our squad decided we were up for a traverse across Cadillac Mountain on a balmy winter day that felt like Spring. it was about 40 degrees and not so windy. It wasn’t long to get to/from the cars. I’d recommend this Cadillac Mountain Traverse to for moderate and advanced hikers. Great views and scenery!
