This morning we took a hike up to the fire tower on top of Beech Mtn. in Acadia National Park.
Although sunny, it was a bit brisk and blustery with the late autumn winds during our ascent to the top. From where I stood to admire this scene, it almost looked like a painting to me, rather than real life.
Huffing and puffing, we're almost there.
Hey, wait up Henri!
This is on the way back down.

You can see such a great distance from the top, that without the benefit of a panoramic camera, this picture just doesn't do it justice.
Here's the view from level 1 of the fire tower which was the highest level that was open.

Close to the bottom, we met a couple of doggies that were just heading up to the top.
We found out they were around our age (in dog years). Piece of cake!
