For a kitschy, only-in-Maine moment, head up to this rollicking open-air show that showcases pure lumberjack artistry. There's log rolling, axe throwing, pole climbing and power-chain sawing among other events. The fun takes place at 7pm nightly from mid-June to late August rain or shine (there's covered seating for the audience).
It's located about 5 miles north of Trenton (17 miles northwest of Bar Harbor).
