| Comments: |
I spent three days in Maine, solo backpacking the Bold Coast, along the Bay of Fundy near the Canadian border. I pitched camp at Black Point Cove; perfect weather; have been planning on this trip for a while, finally got the time off and made the 7 hour drive to Cutler. Totally worth it! Highly recommend this. Got some good drone footage of the ocean cliffs. Check out the video link if you're interested. |
