Jordan Pond
Jordan Pond was pretty high on my list when visiting Acadia. While the Bubbles are not the towering mountains you’ll find in the west of the US, something about them encapsulates the subtle beauty of the Northeast. Up here, it’s not about the epic. It’s gentle, intimate, patient, and lush which makes landscape photography harder, but so rewarding. Of course, hiking in the Northeast is a different story altogether. Boulders of all sizes and icy creek beds make navigating up mountains like the Adirondacks and the White Mountains especially tricky and exhausting in the winter. I truly love the change of the seasons.
