Jordan Pond

This picture of Jordan Pond was taken from the South end of Jordan Pond located within the twenty-seven (27) mile Park Loop Road in Acadia National Park.  The pond was formed by the Wisconsin Ice Sheet or today commonly known as the Last Ice Age some 10,000 to 100,000 years ago.  The pond, maximum depth of 150 feet, serves as the water supply for Seal Harbor residents.  One can see both North and South Bubble Mountains in the background.  This water looks extremely clear, this might be as a result of not allowing any swimmers or pets in the water.
