DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Pathmakers: Cultural Landscape Report for the Historic Hiking Trail System of Mount Desert Island, Acadia National Park, Maine; History, Existing Conditions, and Analysis Existing Conditions describes the configuration of the trail system at the time of this report, with an emphasis on the landscape characteristics and features of the trail system, such as topography and natural features, rather than individual trails. Individual trails are described in an associated database, a portion of which is included in the appendices. Analysis of Significance and Integrity investigates potential areas of significance for the trail system with respect to the National Register of Historic Places. This section addresses the trails as a system but focuses on those within park boundaries. The Analysis com pares findings from the Site history and existing condi tions to evaluate the historical integrity of the trail system, and identifies the significant characteristics of the trail system. The Significant characteristics provide the framework for treatment recommendations pre sented in the second volume.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This report represents the second volume of the Cultural Landscape Report (CLR) for the Historic Hiking Trail System of Mount Desert Island. This volume focuses more specifically on the 103 marked, maintained trails within the park, which extend over 118 miles (See Appendix B). This report is the culmination of several years of research, analysis, field inventory, and documentation necessary to synthesize voluminous information about the island’s extensive trail system. The intended audience for this document includes individuals who are extremely familiar with Acadia’s trails and are involved in the planning process as well as those who may be unfamiliar with the trail system and/or trail construction in general but may be involved in future trail rehabilitation efforts. As a result, this document relies heavily on graphics to complement and enhance the narrative. Numerous photographs and sketches are included to clarify the text, illustrate historic and existing conditions, and provide examples of both acceptable and unacceptable usage of specific trail features.
