Need some help for the coming April 10 to April 12, 2009 weekend.
I notice on the national parks website that the park is officially closed till April 15. But the temperature forecast for this weekend seems fine. So is it worth going to Acadia now and if yes, what would be the suggested itinerary? Or is it very different a month from now and I should save Acadia for then?
Thanks a lot.

Acadia National park in Easter Weekend 2009
Although the park is not officially open, this weekend is an excellent time for Acadia, especially if you like to bike. The Park Loop Road is open to bikes. Now is the perfect time to tour around the Loop Road without any fear of traffic. It%26#39;s a 20-27 mile ride and it has a few steep hills. It%26#39;s very doable even for a person that hasn%26#39;t biked for a while. You can take your time and enjoy the day.
The carriage roads and hiking trails are also open. Many of the hiking trails are accessed by main roads rather than the Park Loop Road so you%26#39;ll have no trouble reaching those. A small portion of the Loop Road is open to traffic via the Schooner Head Road.
