"Started on the Schiff Path and hiked up Dorr Mountain. Then hiked down and summited Cadillac Mountain. Continued on Cadillac South Ridge Trail bagging Dike Peak and Eagles Crag back to my campsite at Blackwoods campground. Distance was 7.1 miles with 1,649 feet of elevation gain." — Zardoz • Sep 9, 2022

"After Molly and I hiked Bar Island, we started doing some red-lining of the park. We parked at Sieur De Mont and hiked towards the Tarn. We then looped south of Dorr Mtn and up over Cadillac South Ridge. We kept going and went up the SE side of Pemetic Mtn and reached the summit. It was an overcast day. We then went off the NE side of Pemetic and up the NW Trail of Cadillac. That was a steep trail. We reached the summit of Cadillac, then headed over to Dorr. By the time we reached Dorr, some clouds had moved in and we were socked in. We came down the Emory Path back to the car. " — newenglandwarrior • May 20, 2022

"Climbed up the Gorge Path. Hardly anyone on it. Went down the North Ridge trail and walked 0.5 miles on the Loop Road to complete the circuit. Total distance of 5.6 miles in three and a half hours." — cv • Aug 18, 2021

"After summiting Dorr Mountain started down the Connector Trail. Refrozen melt water overwhelmed the trail. Way too icy and steep for a solo senior citizen hiker. Retreated back the way I came." — goshen-bagger • Dec 15, 2020

"Full day of hiking in Acadia. Local attempts at "hiking" definitely did not prepare me to do some real climbing. This hike was amazing in every way, even though my body was not physically prepared. It has been since last September when I attempted Katahdin with my son that my legs have done any real work. My knees were dying near the end. It really kicked the crap out of me. I was supposed to exit back over Kebo on the way out, but couldn't see myself doing it without being in some serious pain, so I navigated myself an easier way out that ended up taking me almost right back to my car. Kebo started the day, very easy and quick. Crossed over to Gorge Path, which was simply amazing. Got to the intersection above the gorge and decided to pull myself up over the boulders to summit Cadillac, something I've never done on foot. Got to the top and realized my legs were definitely feeling the rust. Went back down to the intersection and talked myself into summitting Dorr, even though I wasn't feeling it. After getting to the top of that, decided to go back down the North Ridge Trail, which probably ended up being harder than back down the gorge. The open ledges were slippery in many places..." — mikewilliamsjr • May 17, 2020

"Red eye overnight to Boston and the long drive north in order to hike the west ridge in time for sunset. Route was more scrambling than I expected although a bit sketchy in spots where the slabs were wet. " — Christopher • Oct 16, 2019

"Hiked with Kim. We had driven to the summit on our first morning for a pretty mediocre sunrise. The hike itself was really enjoyable but the summit was filled with people and quite windy and cold. We found a picnic table and sat to enjoy a snack and a couple beers. The hike down afforded us great views of the ocean before getting below treeline." — LGH-Tom • Oct 27, 2016

"Hiked with Thomas. Thursday was going to be the best weather of our trip so we decided to head up to Cadillac and enjoy the views on the way up. Great weather and views of the ocean during the trip up. The weather turned bad overnight and we left Acadia early on Friday morning." — Kim-Stilson • Oct 27, 2016

"After Dorr, I dropped down the col and up onto Cadillac. Lots of people on Cadillac as usual. Great to be back. Went to the true high point before descending down South Ridge Tr to Cannon Tr (??) and looping over back to the Tairn and Sieur de Mont. " — newenglandwarrior • Aug 9, 2016

"Scouting trip with the youth in the Madison Ward. Went up with Dad, McKayd, and Keldon and had a blast. Maine was beautiful. We went whitewater rafting down the Kennebec River and then drove up to Acadia National Park for some absolutely gorgeous views. " — kylerlarose • Jul 3, 2015
