Thunder Hole Acadia National Park- Hurrican Bill 08/23/2009

We took this clip of Thunder Hole in Acadia National Park at about 11:30am on August 23, 2009, while standing at the top of the observation area. The stairs below had already been closed off and there was a row of spectators just below us on the trail when a large wave rolled in and reached them. Just after this wave a park ranger moved people out of that area. About a half hour later/noon, a rogue wave came in and swept a group of people off the rocks near Thunder Hole and 3 were pulled into the surf. Very sadly a 7 year old girl drowned.
