The Beehive - Acadia National Park's Scariest Hike - AdventureArchives
video description
I guess lots of other people like more those kinds of videos so it's cool of course.
Personally I watch you guys for your hikes in National Parks, and I wish you will continue to post more hikes and longs videos (also kayaking etc. I hope you focus more on that. Just wanted to give you my opinion! Love from Sweden!

The space to climb The Beehive without tons of people is definitely due to both the time of year and the weather. I was in Acadia in August this year, and it was so packed, the NPS closed half the road and made it parking, and there still wasn't enough. The line for the Beehive was like those pictures you see of the summit of Everest on a clear day; just person on top of person for the entire trail. We skipped it (mostly due to the people, and also having our 11yo with us, but did a bunch of other amazing hikes in the park over the course of a week. The restaurant at Jordan Pond was closed during our trip, so no popovers for us.

I climbed Bee Hive in about 1993 during a Glacial Geomorphology Field Trip, when was back home I wanted to return except dawning my alpine harness and a 10 foot dual ladder hook lanyard. Loved every minute of it feared many of them could be my last. Amazing hike thanks for bringing me back!
I would have trouble not walking past Stephen Kings home in Bangor or checking out the Old Town Canoe plant in Old Town. Also every time I am in eastern Maine, I need to check out the Solar system as laid out on US Route 1 between Houlton, and Presque Ile. I must visit Mt. Katahdin one day! Thanks for the great video -

The top of the mountain really reminds me of Mt Cooran in Australia, it-s really flat at the top and one side is almost a straight drop, it-s so steep people used to base jump off it and glide to the near by town called Pomona and see who could do it the fastest until it got banned and now it-s just known as a race called king of the mountain where people sprint from the town all way up the top and down, lots of rock scrambling but mostly safe and super fun! If you ever come across the sea check it out and you get a beautiful view of a K-gari, formally known as Fraser Island: D

LOL, you guys are a HOOT! Great ending to an awesome video. I must admit, I had to take a break while watching you climb the Beehive (unbelievably scary height. I've been to Acadia, but no way would I attempt that climb. Give me Cadillac Mt. anytime. I've also eaten at Jordan Pond Restaurant. You're not kiddin' about the awesome popovers; a rare treat, not found in many places. Still got to check out your first video in this series (Niagra. Didn't realize you went to Mt. Washington, any footage? Did you check out Kancamagus Hwy?

you should go to the porcupine mountains in the U. P. of michigan it has old growth forest and on the great lake and over 200 miles of diff hiking trail and it is 60000 acers of forest 92 miles. ive gone to every state park in the U. P. porkys is the best for hiking. but do not go on the lake superior trail you will get eaten alive by Mosquitoes and barely see the lake and it muddy most of time but the others trails are great.

Beautiful! I just moved from SoCal to the east coast. Have to put this one on my list! I'm not afraid of heights, just not a fan of narrow ledges either Andrew! I get it! One thing I was told by an instructor at REI before I climbed Mt. Whitney was, -If you look down, you go down. - Since then I never look down until I reach the top. Helps get me through some of the sketchy sections. :) You guys are awesome!

I like how you guys are premiering the episode here. It gives non-Patreon people a chance to catch segments if they don-t have a full amount of time to watch the actual episode, while still keeping the integrity and quality of what you put out! It also builds up excitement to for those who like to watch the episode in full because we all know how much you guys work on the episodes! Bravo!

Oh man I can't wait to watch this video! I was a NPS LE Ranger here a while ago, this is an awesome trail! Not the scariest trail in the park for me though, the Precipice trail is a lot more exposed -. Acadia has some of the best day hikes on the east coast imo! Its a special place to me, hope you guys had a blast there! I hiked almost everything while I was there: D

I have really enjoyed the first views of this New England trip. When I hear you guys talk about the awesome power of the ocean, I think about how impressive large lakes and rivers are to those of us in the arid southwest. You got some beautiful footage of Maine, and it was great to see the interesting food you found along the way.
