About This Design

Knife Edge Trail Katahdin Maine Postcard

Knife Edge Trail Katahdin Maine Postcard

The crown jewel of hikes in Maine is the Knife Edge Trail atop Mount Katahdin, the northern terminus of the Appalachian Trail. From the base at Baxter State Park’s Roaring Brook Campground, the Hunt Trail climbs steadily through spruce–fir forest before breaking into the alpine zone. Once you reach Cathedral Ridge, the real adventure begins: a narrow, rocky spine stretching nearly a mile with steep drop-offs on either side. Hand-over-hand scrambling leads you past wind-sculpted cairns and granite tors, each step rewarding you with sweeping panoramas of Baxter’s deep lakes and pine-studded valleys. Tackling the Knife Edge demands respect and preparation—strong footwear, sure footing, and a clear head for exposure are essential—but those who make the traverse are treated to one of the most exhilarating ridge-line hikes in North America. On a clear day, you’ll stand above 5,000 feet of rugged wilderness, with the jagged profile of Baxter Peak just ahead and the vastness of Northern Maine stretching below. For many, the Knife Edge isn’t just a hike but a rite of passage: a dramatic testament to Maine’s wild spirit and a memory etched in stone and sky long after the descent.

Exactly what I wanted, it is very difficult to acquire Vintage Australiana items. I am so please that I ordered 8 I will be using them for my scrap booking and Junk Journaling. Gorgeous, Zazzle produced and delivered exactly what I wanted.

Way better quality than I ever expected. I love the colours, font and quality of the card. I'm so pleased I found Zazzle as it is near impossible to purchase Vintage or Retro Australian memorabilia online. I chose this design when I purchased them. They are perfect for my projects. I was very specific about what I wanted. I know where to come now when I need to order similar items.

Perfect for the occasion I was using it for. I was able to delete the lines so I could put in more wording. Had an envelope so the address side wasn't necessary. Print quality and paper quality lovely.
