Oh, yeah, that is one beautiful place. I once saw the sun rise from there in August. It must have been below freezing and the wind was whipping at about 50 mph, but it was worth it to be pretty much looking out over the edge of the earth.

I am overcome by a sudden and urgent desire to be hiking somewhere. Thanks for sharing – it’s a great pic.

I remember going to Cadillac Mountain one August. There are wild blueberries on top that are absolutely delicious!
