Forillon

I've been having fun speaking French. After listening to the Quebecois for a while, I've re-found my accent. So picture me saying Forillon the right way...

Forillon is a National Park at the top of the Gaspesie. There are cliffs and seabirds and rocks and ocean waves and pebbly beaches and cold wind.

To the west


To the east


These waterfalls disappeared into the pebbles on the beach and went underground to the sea.


Like this


The cliffs above the beach. There is a trail to the top of Mt. St. Albans, with an observation tower at the peak. It was shrouded in clouds the entire time we were there.


On the way out, we saw a black bear, but he left before we could get a picture. Here's what the drive to the south part of the park was like.


And now, it is time to go on our multi-state cache run. I'll post more of the Gaspesie the next time I've got internet.
