Cadillac Mountain - Acadia National Park, Maine

This panoramic image shows a sunrise view from Cadillac Mountain on Mount Desert Island in Acadia National Park, Maine overlooking Frenchman Bay. Several smaller islands are seen off the coast of Bar Harbor (photo), located below on the shoreline in the immediate distance. Beyond the smaller islands is the mainland of Maine. Most of the Park is located on Mount Desert Island. The only portion of Acadia located on the mainland is on the Schoodic Peninsula.

Mount Desert Island has over 20 mountains, all of which were sheared off by glaciers thousands of years ago. Cadillac Mountain, at 1,532 feet, is the highest and best known mountain on the island and is the highest point along the North Atlantic seaboard. (See sunset) Maine, particularly Acadia National Park, is known for its rugged rocky coastline (see panoramic).
