a nice little hike over a trail that was basically a stream. since we had no idea where we were headed, the rapids / waterfall at the end was a nice surprise.
A nice afternoon spent hiking around Bottle Cove.
I had high hopes for getting some drone shots here, and to camp in the great sites at the edge of these cliffs. But the rain was just...In...Sane. With the camera covered in a rain-cover and wiping the lens after each shot, we were each a gallon of water heavier after just 10 minutes. Another great, lousy place to pitch tents in the rain. We skipped on to Corner Brook.
Almost immediately after getting off the ferry in Port Aux Basques, Newfoundland, we turned onto Tower Road, a service road leading to the top of a hill where a WWII radio tower used to be. I had seen photos from the top of this hill and the great view of the lake below and made a note "don't bother if its foggy". It was foggy. It was quite steep in parts, with a bit of low-level rock crawling over the occasional washed out section but mostly smooth sailing. Just machine rubber and stone, up and up and up. It was a fun climb. Leeann admitted later she completed part of it with her eyes closed singing happy songs to herself. We got about 3/4 of the way up and accepted the weather was not getting any better and there was absolutely no view ahead so we turned back, saving the suspension for future abuse.
