Ocean and Laura on the approach trail to Mount Katahdin

A photo story

On the way up Katahdin

Laura and I were on the approach trail to Mount Katahdin, early in the day, in August 2025. It was in the upper 40s when we started, under a partly cloudy sky, with only a light breeze.

The trail starts in the woods and works its way up toward the Cathedral route I took to the summit later that morning. We grabbed this selfie before the climbing really started.
