Daboullie

Daboullie Mountain doesn’t have the grand size of a Mt. Katahdin, but makes up for it in the diverse terrain and beautiful lakes along the trail. With the windshield wipers on high the entire drive over to the trailhead we knew we were instore for a wet run. But it was one of those runs where you actually enjoyed the rain. Besides keeping the temperatures down, the rain and fog added to the mystique of the area. Photo: Corrine and Grace
