After enjoying some artichoke pockets from Morning Glory Bakery for our breakfast, we took some time to document this mark, disk “D” in the 841 3320 TIDAL series. It’s located on a ledge adjacent to the Shore Path, and directly across the path from the Bar Harbor Inn. This is a beautiful spot for a benchmark with the hotels and trail on one side and the bay on the other! The disk is in very good condition.
