From ‘Google‘. Check it out.

This does NOT sit well with me. This is wrong.

‘Acadia‘ has the WONDERFUL, FREE, ‘Island Explorer‘ bus service — part funded by Park Entrance Fees.

Providing a bus service to the summit of ‘Cadillac‘ — should be THEIR EXCLUSIVE prerogative. This shuttle to Cadillac does NOT have to be FREE. People will gladly pay.

It is wrong that a private company is allowed to profit from this.

This should be a Park Service initiative — that they get money for.

This makes me mad & sad.

Looks like there was some ‘insider’ trading — if you know what I mean.

First Sunrise In Mainland U.S. For The Next 17-Days Will Be At ‘Quoddy Head’, In Maine’s Glorious ‘Bold Coast’.

The above, categorically, is the definitive timetable. I did a lot of painstaking research (per my trademark) to get this nailed down. I was tired of seeing the inaccuracies.

So, dear ‘Quoddy‘ only has the honors for 28 days each year, around the two equinoxes (& if you know your astronomy, that makes eminent sense).

IF you have gone up ‘Cadillac‘ over the Summer (paying the new ‘Use Fee’) you have been DUPED. Cadillac has not been in the frame since March 6.

Never heard of ‘Mars Hill‘? Here is a map, also from my book.

You have to blame the Canadians for why it is Mars Hill rather than Cadillac during the summer. Has to do with hills casting shadows.

IF I can get everything squared off with the book, & the weather cooperates, I am hoping to make a trip up the Bold Coast to see first sunrise at Quoddy prior to October 7th. IF I can do October 6th that would be neat.

I did make it to Cadillac last October 20 (i.e., 2020) see the First Sunrise.
