This shot is from a hike in Acadia National Park. CJH and I did one of if not the last peak that we had not done. It was Pemetic Mountain a 1250 foot peak and the hike was along the eastern side of Jordan Pond. In Acadia the south slopes of the mountains are more gradual and easier to climb than the northern approaches. I knew this. But after we ascended to the top from the south, a longer climb, I suggested that we go back off the northern side toward Bubble Pond. In a short while, we were on a very steep climb with lots of loose rock and scrubby trees and branches. It was a chore. About 3/4 down there was a large flat rocky spot that was covered with low grasses and the bright red leaves of wild blueberry bushes poking out. I made a great show of taking this photo. What I really was doing was getting a rest. We - obviously - made it down and took the long way back to the car. Lesson: South slope to ascend, South slope to descend. Got it.
