Today we hike the 3 miles one way to Lands End. There are two routes to chose from, the hiking trail and the “access road.” The trail has an extra 300 feet of elevation gain with lots of small ups and downs. Both ways offer incredible views south. Off in the distance Bonaventure Island is visible. As we watch Northern Gannets diving for food we guess they are from the gannet colony on the Island. It’s a long hike with the camera gear but you never know when the right photographic opportunity will surface.
At Lands End there’s a lighthouse and cliffs that jut into the ocean. This is the northern end of the Appalachian Mountain chain.
Once back to the truck we explore various areas of the National Park then head back to camp for supper, cards, and bed.
