Saturday 9/12

Todays hike is in the Corney Brook area of the park. Have you picked up on the fact that I like waterfalls??
We were curious about Cheticamp Island, so we rode out there. Seeing the village of Cheticamp from across the water gave you a much better idea of it size and charm. The cows are free range out here, so we had to share the road. Mark had spotted a few eagles in flight, but I finally spotted one in a tree that I could actually take a picture of.
We stopped for a quick dinner and then walked one last trail of the day.
We chose the Le Chemin du Buttereau. It was originally a cart path built in the late 1700’s. It linked Cheticamp with the isolated fishing camps on the coast.
We saw the foundations of houses, abandoned field now full of rosehips and even an old well. There was a little wildlife out… a cute little rabbit. We also witnessed another beautiful sunset on the Gulf
