We headed back south to Gros Morne. Then we made some day trip visits in and around the park.
The Arches Provincial Park. A curious rock formation made of dolomite. The rounded boulders that make up the ‘seashore’ were hard to walk on but beautiful.
Beautiful rounded boulders on the beach. Too big to bring home…
This is the area called “Green Point Geological Site” (that spit of land jutting out in the background). It is part of Gros Morne National Park and is considered a “World Geological Benchmark”. Fossils discovered here define the boundary between the Cambrian and Ordovician periods.

Looking down from the edge
Lobster traps along the coast at Green Point. Labrador is across the water.
Colorful, Interesting Rocks. Maybe I should have been a geologist…
