The sun was on us the entire hike. Being a dry year in Cape Breton the trail was very dry, but loaded with blueberries.

We were wondering if it drys up in the summer as it is very boggy here. The trail to the first lookoff was in good shape it was the actually the last 1km (.6mi)to the second lookoff that was so bad.<br /><br />Sue and Doug...That shelter was a nice break from the cool wind and the raindrops coming down. Several of the longer hikes have these shelters, I think they are a good idea.<br /><br />Kevin, Ruth and WhiskeyKevin Readhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05795747155781311686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-26701353408533002902011-06-16T23:29:21.065-04:002011-06-16T23:29:21.065-04:00another great hike..at least this one has a rest s...another great hike..at least this one has a rest stop in the middle!!Sue and Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11436889944386917688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-19568882733660039512011-06-16T08:53:35.845-04:002011-06-16T08:53:35.845-04:00If that spot is "damp", I would not want...If that spot is "damp", I would not want to hike in a wet area :)Chuck and Anneke's RV travelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01929384797592263167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-33587081744222510992011-06-16T08:51:44.262-04:002011-06-16T08:51:44.262-04:00Looks like a nice day for a good hike.Looks like a nice day for a good hike.Roadrunner Chronicleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15720107862190088369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-78626840634060657352011-06-16T08:47:05.246-04:002011-06-16T08:47:05.246-04:00Another good hike getting closer to your goal.
