What was the post? The picture is from the bubbles on MDI, if I'm not mistaken

Goddamnit this keeps happening to me where I reply to someone and they delete their comment.

They said something like “this whole thing is stupid and you should fire your intern you didn’t even use a picture of Maine that’s NH and I’m very smart”

The picture looks uncannily like the foreground of Franconia Notch viewed from Artists Bluff. Except Mt Lafayette is missing in the back. And you can’t see distant water from there. And the road isn’t along the shore of this weird-shaped Echo Lake. And the ski trails at Cannon are somehow missing. I can totally see where someone might get confused.

The profile of the land also looks more vaguely like Crawford Notch viewed from Mt Willard, except it’s absolutely not.

I was genuinely curious where this person thought the picture was taken.

I’ll have to go check it out on MDI! I’ve never really been to the island. Been all around it, but I don’t think I’ve ever actually set foot on the island.

It's really awesome. Tons of little hikes and sights to see. It's got something for everyone. The Bubbles hike is sweet. Totally doable for pretty much anyone and well worth the few hundred feet of elevation gain for the effort.

I found another Reddit post with the view from the Bubbles here. It's surely the same.

There's no way it's from NH. There's no mountain with an ocean view like this in the state. Not even a similar lake view that I can think of.
