We spent our first day in the Precipice climbing area where we had beautiful weather and amazing views of the ocean from the top of the cliffs.
A unique approach to the climb. |

We woke up early on Saturday morning to watch an amazing sunrise over the ocean.
Sunday turned into a rainy day. Since it was too wet to climb we decided to explore some of the hiking areas on Mount Desert Island.

On our last day in Acadia we had the chance to climb at Otter Cliffs. Otter is directly on the ocean, meaning that we were climbing above the water all day. It's one of the most unique places the Wilderness Program sends participants.
