![]() The Ladder Trail up Dorr Mountain is famous for its stone staircases. Some trails - such as the Perpendicular Trail - have more steps than others. In Acadia, stone steps are far from unusual. The CCC crew covered the uneven blocks of granite with moss and planted ferns to help them blend in, according to the National Park Service website. Yet it almost seems a part of the landscape. The trail, built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in 1933, is steep and fantastical, its many steps forming a clear path through the wilderness. ![]()
