The hike is only a 1.5 mile lolipop with 500 feet of elevation gain, but it took us 80 minutes due to stopping to goof off and take pictures and drink beer.

beehive
Our first hike in Acadia was the park classic Beehive. Good pick to tackle on the day before a marathon. There is definitely some exposure, but as a guy who is afraid of heights I can say this wasn't too bad. Lots of fun though, and the scenery was outstanding.

Did you see anyone hiking DOWN the Beehive? Seems like there's always someone doing it that way.
Nice fall colors.
We didn't see anyone coming down the Beehive, but we saw some folks coming down the Precipice.
Haven't been able to do the Precipice in years since we always visit in the spring/summer and it is closed for falcon nesting. Great trail but I'd assume, from memory, tricky going down.
That looks like a lot of fun. I'd wear some La Sportivas on that one.
