Ken's Journal Baddeck, Nova Scotia |
Half-way back on the hard trail looking north along the Gulf of St Lawrence coast. |
And a shot inland at the Cape Breton Highlands. You can get lost up here. I had mentioned earlier that the habitat reminded me of Alaskan tundra - well, on the way back I saw a moose - rare elsewhere in Cape Breton, they are apparently common here. This one was a young bull moose - maybe a year old. I took a couple pictures of it but none were worth reproducing here. |
The obligatory dead tree. I like dead trees. I don't know why - maybe something about giving after death. |
Ok! I'm ready for lunch! |
The Rusty Anchor at Pleasant Bay. |
No I didn't have lobster, but I did have snow crab - on the patio. |
Somewhere south of Ingonish I found this "beach." Only the hardy get in the water here - I dipped my feet in the water and couldn't feel them again for an hour. |
This little spit of land in the middle of the picture is a ferry landing. This is a short-cut that skips part of the lower end of the Cabot Trail. The ferry crossing is all of 200 yards at the most and once you board, you're offloading 5 minutes later. |
A bridge on route PH105 over Big Bras D'Or, the major channel between the lake and the Atlantic. |
Big Bras D'Or - the Atlantic on the horizon. |
