Winters can be brutal, so you really have to be a snowbird to enjoy winter up there. We uncovered a series of photos at the Library of Congress, showing Bar Harbor, Maine in the 1900s.

These last two photos show the view from Newport House, which sadly was demolished in 1938. Built in 1869, it’s just south of where Agamont Park is today.
