Moose in Gros Morne National Park

A few pics of a cow and a calf on the side of the highway in Gros Morne a few weeks ago. The little guy seemed to be very annoyed from the flies and was splashing around in the water.

Avalon Wilderness Reserve

On Saturday I hiked from the TCH overland to the edge of the wilderness reserve, had a lunch, picked some blue berries and partridge berries, then hiked back. Altogether it was about 5.5 hrs of walking. I saw two moose, but before I could get my camera out, they were gone out of sight. The landscape reminds me of where I grew up, on the southwest coast of the island.

Here is a pic of me looking out from the top of Inside Hawkes Hill, overlooking the Avalon Wilderness Reserve. You can really see how the glaciers carved out Newfoundland in this area.
