Otter Cliffs at Acadia National Park offers some of the best rock climbing anywhere on the east coast. Luckily we had Andrew and Jacob’s expertise to show us the, er, ropes. I didn’t participate this time around, but photographed some of the brave folks who did. Phil set the tone by being the first — his first time! — to rappel down the cliff on the lip of the Atlantic Ocean.
