A bonus peak after climbing Penobscot. Or was Penobscot a bonus peak before Sargent?

Giant Slide adventure
Went up the Giant Slide Trail to Sargent Mountain. Summit was a bit of a disappointment due to our early start and dense fog, but the changed route up the Giant Slide trail was a great Class 3 Scramble due to work on the main trail. On to Parkman and then down!
I like the views from this area more than Cadillac. You can get some nice westward views. Decent sized summit area, so you don't have clear sight lines everywhere. Not too crowded

Jordan Cliff
Came up the very scenic Jordan Cliff Trail and descended from the Eastern side.

Route Climbed: Hadlock Brook, Grandgent, and Bald Peak Trails
Great loop hike. Saw only a few people on the summit ridge. Busy in the afternoon due to the fine weather. Expansive views throughout the loop. Easy trails to follow. Summits of Gilmore Peak, Parkman Mountain, and Bald Peak are also nice.

FrequentlyHiked many times, most recently in icy January conditions. With that long gentle ridge, probably my favourite of Acadia's tops.
