Some of autumn’s earliest fallen leaves decorated the surface of a bog pond, nestled within the quiet inland forests of Acadia National Park. We found the cool, calm, dewy morning hike to be quite refreshing, both from an immersively sensory perspective, and from a lack of tourist throngs that disembark from cruise ships to descend upon the better-known coastal and mountaintop destinations. The inner forests of the park are a hidden jewel well worth taking a retreat from the coastal noise.
