The Precipice Trail is still closed - and here’s why.

There are currently juvenile (teenage) peregrine falcons calling Champlain Mountain their home. During this time, the adults are protective of their young. They are teaching these “teenagers” how to hunt and become successful breeding adults who will support their population.

So why can’t I climb up the Precipice with these teenage birds flying around? Because the adults perceive humans as a major threat to themselves and their young. So, if the adults are too busy tending to predators (i.e. us), then they aren’t spending the time “coaching” their young or hunting for food to feed them. This could lead to starvation or the young peregrines having unsuccessful breeding seasons in the future.

Hey, no worries though. The Precipice trail won’t be going anywhere and will likely reopen later this summer. And anyways, aren’t the best hikes the ones we work for? Or, in this case, wait for?

Opening Day scones…
Half are chocolate chip and the other half are an experiment and are peanut butter chocolate chip.

Make sure to leave some time on your vacation to get out of your car and explore Acadia on bike or foot. You will not regret it.

A favorite of cyclists, the park’s historic carriage roads offer 45 miles of woodland that’s free of motor vehicles.
