The trail begins climbing through a boulder field. You can always check that you are on the right path by looking for a blue blaze, like the one on the tree.

The trail passes under this slab. I used a light to go through it to make sure I didn't spook an animal that might be hanging out in it. Definitely a highlight of the hike.
The trail makes its way along a log path through the woods for a short section, providing easy hiking by Acadia's standards. This is private land, so please stay on the trail.
The trail moves out of the boulder field and becomes dirt, gravel, and roots as it levels off.
