After some rediculous 15 hour drive and an
overnight stay, this was my first view of Mt.
Katahdin.

Another
perspective
of the pond.

 |
I completely
forget where along the hike this was.
|
 |
It was a 4 day trip.
On the last day we summited Mt. Katahdin. We had to get up around
4:30 am to be at the parking lot
by 5am or
so before it filled up. We started the ascent around 6am. The clouds
hadn't burned off yet.
|
 |
The clouds were so
cool the way they would thicken and thin with the breeze. One minute
you'd have a view of something.
The next minute it was gone.

A picture
for mom.
|
 |
The
little pond down in the center is chimney pond. I think it's 1,500' to 2,000' below
the summit.
|
 |
More ponds.
|
 |
I was trying to use my
foot in the picture for perspective. Either my foot is too small or
too far away from the camera.
because this drop was
huge.
|
 |
This part of the trail
is called the Knife's edge. It runs along this skinny little ridge
to join another peak that makes Mt.
Katahdin.
|
 |
Here's Jeff having
lunch on the knife's edge as the clouds swirl around him.
