Mount Katahdin; Baxter Peak.
Mount Katahdin is the highest mountain in Maine, at 5,268 feet. Named by the Penobscot Indians, the term means "The Greatest Mountain". Here is a picture of two of my good friends from home at the top of Katahdin. As you can see the weather is perfect, I remember the day like it was yesterday. It wasn't the easiest hike, but it was so beautiful. Blueberry skies for days and days, not too cold but just enough sun to get you through. Once we got to the top I couldn't help but smile. The accomplishment of hiking the tallest mountain Maine, just makes me feel that more appreciative for Maine. Go Maine!
