Again, I will post a full trip report in a couple days. Bar Harbor, August, has days with highs of 71☏ (22☌) and lows of 60☏ (15☌). May for a typical day ranges from a high of 56☏ (13☌) to a low of 45☏ (7☌).Some would describe it as moderately chilly with a gentle breeze.For comparison, the hottest month in. ![]() So, I continued on to Southwest Harbor, Ship Harbor, and the Bass Harbor Lighthouse. The average temperature in Bar Harbor in. I was going to hike the carriage road just north of Northeast Harbor, but I could not find any parking. But, I guess I could have done a hike on a carriage road. But, pets either were not allowed on those trails or the hike was too much. I wanted to do the Beehive, Gorham Mountain, Dorr Mountain, and Acadia Mountain. On MDI, I did Great Head, Jordan Pond Nature Trail, Ocean Path, Ship Harbor, and the Cadillac Mt Summit Trail. I went up one trail and came back on the Anvil Trail. ![]() I also did the hike in Schoodic up to Schoodic Head and the Anvil. And the scenery was well worth the drive over there! I didin't do the ferry from BH because of my dogs, but the drive was really nice and there was a tidal falls near Hancock. And one day I took the trip over to Schoodic, some people, but mostly solitude! Much more quieter. The other side of the island around Southwest Harbor was a little bit quieter. The park didin't have much traffic, but the parking areas were jammed after ten. ![]() There they have closed a section of road and made it Bus only. It is a great bus system and is very much like Zion NP in Utah. I left them at our place to go into Bar Harbor on the bus even though were not suppose to, but drove around with them in the park. Even though they are allowed, it would not have worked. Yes, dogs are allowed on the buses and some people had them.
