Hiking Maine’s coastal high point (Mount Megunticook via Ocean Lookout) (ME)

My brother and I originally planned to hike Old Speck, ranked #5 out of Maine’s fourteen 4,000 footers. That was before we spent almost the entire day prior installing flooring above his garage.

I didn’t get a lot of sleep, but I tried to nab a few winks en route to Baxter State Park. […] “Hiking Mount Coe and South & North Brother in Baxter State Park (ME)”
