just look and listen for the subies :-) as long as you're following, you will NOT get lost.

 
Can someone please update the OP with information. Like where and when groups are meeting?

 
Let's plan on meeting at 745 at the Auburn park and ride. Leave at 8:10. Please be there on time!

This means we will be at the Augusta Civic Center at 8:50-9. So Augusta people, please be there on time! Well leave by 9:15 for Bar Harbor.

First Stage of the Route:

Stage 2: Augusta to Bar Harbor

We will be leaving Augusta by 9:15. One stop in Ellsworth for gas, instead of stopping in overcrowded, over priced Bar Harbor for gas. There's a few gas stations right in down town Ellsworth, and I feel to make things move along faster, we should split up and go to the gas station of your choice. Maybe 20-30min to fill up our group. Then we all be meeting at the Hannafords(http://maps.google.com/maps?q=44.531369,-68.408571&num=1&t=h&gl=us&hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=44.531766,-68.407531&spn=0.003931,0.010568&z=17), where we then head out to Bar Harbor.

 
Stage 3: Bar Harbor:

We are going to drive down to the Park Loop Road.

Then we are going to drive around the Park loop road, until we get to Cadillac Mt, where we will drive up it and eat lunch. Bring a bag lunch. We probably wont be stopping to see all the sites while on the Park Loop Road.

Yo, G. Might make sense to put these "stages" on the first page just so anyone can look back to it for reference

 
Stage Cuatro : Back Home

After eating Lunch, we will head back into Bar Harbor, and take pretty much the same route home. At this time, if it is convenient for you to take another route, don't hesitate to do so. If at any time you want to break off on the way back, don't hesitate to do. Once we reach Augusta, well take route 95 south and everyone can go their separate ways.

How many tollbooths will we be going through? Those could be an issue.

There look to be a lot of great roads in the park. Maybe we should take more time in there?
