Narrative and photographs

This was a fun mark to find, and it’s in such a beautiful location! Like a few others in this area, HULL is a topographic disk, something a little different from the majority of marks we find. This one also had us wandering around on private property belonging to the Bar Harbor Yacht Club—fortunately we didn’t need to go anywhere near their facilities and were able to walk out to Canoe Point through the woods without any problems. The disk is in very good condition and is set into a nice smooth rocky ledge that would be perfect for a picnic overlooking the bay.
