“It was during a lumbering operation on the Fernald land toward Somesville in the winter of 1820 that Canada Hollow received its name. It was a very severe winter and stories of the extreme cold to the north were brought down from Canada. The choppers got the habit of referring to the location of their work as "Canada" believing that no place could be much colder, and the name has been used down through the years and now seems firmly fixed.” - “Traditions and Records of Southwest Harbor and Somesville, Mount Desert Island, Maine” by Mrs. Seth S. Thornton, p. 139 – 1938

9504Balance Rock on South Bubble
  • Image, Photograph
  • Places, Mountain
  • Townsend - Charles A. Townsend (1871-1932)
  • Acadia National Park
The original title of the photograph was "Balance Rock on South Bubble" as the rock was known by that name when the photograph was taken in 1909 before the creation of Sieur de Monts National Monument, which later became Acadia National Park. The name was probably changed because of the confusion between it and the famous Balance Rock on the shore at Bar Harbor.

9254Remains of Robert Kaighn's Summit Shelter on Bernard Mountain
  • Image, Photograph, Digital Photograph
  • Places, Mountain
  • Lenahan - Donald Patrick Lenahan
  • 2009-04-24
  • Acadia National Park
  • Bernard Mountain
Robert Kaighn originally owned the top of Western Mountain and hiked during his time on the island. "This is a photo I took of what has been termed Kaighn's "rustic summerhouse" on top of Bernard Mountain. He owned the land from the West Peak to Great Notch, which he later gave to the Hancock County Trustees of Public Reservations. Note the four iron spikes outlining a square and a iron ring in the middle. If this is in fact his rustic summer house, then it was nothing more than a hut or shelter, given its small size. There was a path named for Robert Kaighn on top of Bernard Mountain. I haven't yet found that path, altho I did "discover" another old abandoned one called the Spring Trail from which it branched." - Don Lenahan 2009

This photo was taken from almost the same spot as a photo by W.H Ballard in October 1935. See Item 11895 for the Ballard photo. The cruise ship in the distance is the "MS Maasdam," a Holland America cruise ship built in 1993 by Italy’s Fincantieri Shipyards. She was named for a dam located on the Maas River in the Netherlands. “Maasdam” is an S class 10 deck cruise ship, 721.78’ long, 101.50 beam, 131.23’ high with a 24.93’ draught. She carries a crew of 580 and 1,258 passengers at a speed of 22 knots.
