Monday mostly nice with early evening smirr or smizzle
Other side,Acadian side of the park and a finish to the Cabot Trail. With moose!
Next time you are up this way,cape North highlands, be sure to take the Jack Pine forest walk/hike. Good signage, fragile Jack Pine ecosystem. Be sure, we did, to wear mudophile shoes. Coastline looks like it broke off from Brittany, same red granite
The shieling is one of the last of its kind. Situated in a heavily protected part of an old growth forest. As one tours the trails there is a sense that your presence is just not wanted by the ecosystem but desired by the park service.
Made up for last evening: mayo free lobster rolls for lunch.
Big wildlife sighting: two moose,moose, several good pictures on cameras and iPhone.
According to the locals there are an abundance of moose, to many, OK to hunt and lots of bears but no attacks. Interesting micro climate with extreme winds over 100 mph common. Houses are designed for the wind with extra bracing. No pines grow here, too soft, start growing 15 miles south.
People,"from away ", who move here don't know this he said laughing.
Dinner: Acadian Bouillabaisse. A well stocked seafood medley in a broth.
