Rugged, Hazardous, and Beautiful


Of course, as I'm sure you've guessed from the title, I'm referring to one of my favorite things about Newfoundland, Canada... the women! If you've ever met a Newfie Lass, you can't possibly disagree (under pain of death) but I digress, this photo was taken after a few kilometers of hiking to get to the coast in August, 2006. The hiking trail is just a short drive past the Tablelands in Gros Morne National Park near Woody Point, Newfoundland and well worth the effort, although some would disagree. Getting back to the vehicles is monumentally difficult because the hike seems to have a disproportional uphill/downhill ratio. I'm sure there's twice as much uphill hiking than there should be! (Sony DSLR-A100, 50mm, f/13, 1/160, ISO 100)

Edit/Update: The Long Pond trail in Green Gardens is a moderate to strenuous, 9 km hike.
