ReplyDeleteWhere is that? I'm guessing it is just east of Ogden Point looking north, the bar on the right being the one that connects to Bald Porcupine Island, and the land on the left is Bar Harbor. It is a beautiful shot.
ReplyDeleteThat is ACTUALLY on the Bar of Bar Harbor fame and at the very left you can JUST see the tip of Bar Island the other islands are the assorted Porcupines....to the front you can see some boats in Bar Harbor and are looking towards Winter Harbor and the town of Bar Harbor is outside of the frame to the right. It's all compressed because of the telephoto.
ReplyDeleteOK, this is the OTHER bar. This bar by Bar Island is totally exposed at low tide, and covered at high tide. Since part of it is covered in the picture, I thought it was the other bar by Bald Porcupine Island, that only goes about 3/4 of the way to shore.
ReplyDeleteObviously, the Bar Island bar is natural. Is the Bald Porcupine Island bar natural too, or was it created by the Army Corp of Engineers to protect Bar Harbor from storms?
I read today that the Bar Harbor Town Council is looking into "barring" automobiles from going on this bar at low tide, since the NPS totally owns Bar Island and half of the bar now. It sounds like a lot of local people are less than thrilled about doing that.
Correction : The bar connected to Bald Porcupine Island is known as the Bar Harbor Breakwater (see topo map at http://www.coastguides.com/r5/5.71bchrt.html).
ReplyDeleteStill want to know - if & when it was created. Anyone know?
Helluva shot, jeff.
ReplyDeleteBut it reminds me of the time I borrowed my brother's racing kayak & started paddling out to sea (this was in Hawai'i), and then learned that racing kayaks are a real bitch to turn around, did you know that?
I didn't know that. Not until then, that is.
