⚠ Thunderstorms can develop quickly on July afternoons, over elevated terrain at Acadia and Baxter State Park. If you are above treeline on Katahdin's Knife Edge or Cadillac Mountain when lightning approaches, there is no shelter. The exposed granite ridge becomes dangerous. Check forecasts before any summit attempt. Plan to be off exposed ridges by early afternoon.
⚠ The UV index reaches 8 in July, which is high enough for sunburn within thirty minutes of unprotected exposure. The breeze off the Penobscot and the comfortable air temperatures create a false sense of security. Many visitors burn on their first full day outdoors without realizing it until the evening.
