and then on past the bottom of the Cadillac Mountain summit road and down to Eagle Lake where I took this:
After breakfast, we all undertook to walk the Gorham Mountain Trail - a fairly short steep climb to the summit and some lovely views of the coast:
On the way down, the trail merges with several other trails - and gives views of the scariest trail of them all - the Precipice Trail (at first we thought we were seeing a group of climbers rather than several clusters of hikers on this nearly sheer climb):
At the end of the trail, we took a short detour onto Sand Beach so that the smallest hikers could cool their feet:
It was quite a lot busier than it looks!
After lunch and a restful couple of hours in the afternoon, we all went down to Eagle Lake (in the car), and I got to compare the shortly-after-dawn views with the shortly-before-dusk ones:
And finally, a glimpse of Bubble Lake which we'd seen signposted from our walk on Cadillac Mountain the day before:
