North Bubble

About

North Bubble is a summit of 869 feet in Acadia National Park in Maine, about 3.4 miles from the town of Bar Harbor. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station run from highs near 74°F in June to about 79°F in July, and the summit sits higher than that station, so expect somewhat cooler temperatures up top. Several trails and climbing areas lie close by. Bubbles Trail starts about 0.2 miles away, and Bubbles Divide is about 0.3 miles off. South Bubble, a climbing area, is also about 0.3 miles away, and the Pemetic Mountain Northwest Trail is about 0.4 miles away.
