Day 27 Aug 30 2014 Rocky Harbour NFLD (Gros Morne)



Day 27     Aug 30 2014    Rocky Harbour NFLD   (Gros Morne)


We stopped at the Arches on the way to Gros Morne so we could see the Arches at a higher tide.  I was extremely windy and the waves were impressive.  We walked into two different falls in Gros Morne.  The first was a 10 km round trip into Bakers Brook Falls.  On the way we walked past a Moose Exclusion area which is an area that was fenced off in 2009.  The area shows the difference in forest regeneration that the browsing of the moose causes.  There is a stark difference between the exclusion area and feeding area of the moose.  NFLD is supposed to have 120 000 moose and Gros Morne is supposed to have 5000 moose in the park boundary.  The second falls we walked into were the South Brook Falls.  To get a good look at the falls we had to pass the safety fencing and Evy was starting to get a little worried where I was letting her kids go.
