Drove to the Berry Hill Campground in the morning. Although only about 80 klm away, it is kinda slow going as you are constantly going up and over the mountains. The road is actually in good shape, with well placed passing lanes. The views are quite nice, especially when you crest a mountain.
Headed west off the Trans Can towards Gros Morne. The park was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987, for its unique and impressive geological features. We first headed to the south part of the park, where the Tablelands are found.
It is immediately apparent as you drive off the ferry that Newfoundland is a very different sort of place. A mix of boreal forests, rocky barrens, and numerous lakes.

It’s girls weekend time again, an annual event that has happened for probably the past ten years, so my Sherpa duties continue once again.

Scored the same site we had last year, and our friends Tanya & Malcolm were able to do the same. These are perhaps the best of all the waterfront sites.
Our now annual trip to Charleston Lake with our friends Jackie & Ted, Drew & Nancy, with their Altos. Early spring we plan ahead to grab sites close to each other and the beach. It is always great to be able to just carry the kayaks to the water, or to go for a quick refreshing dip.
We always look forward to PEC, as it is such a fun place to visit and explore. We camped over the weekend at a private campground near our friends home, then shifted to Sandbanks for the rest of the week.
Back to Bonnechere to start our cobbled together summer season. We are camping with Chris & Jen, and their 1743. Snagged a couple of sites along the river, super convenient to get the kayaks out on the water for a paddle.
First stop on the way home was Reed Bingham SP. We have been here before and it is a lovely park. Nice full service sites, and well maintained.
