Backpacking

View of Mont Brassard from the yellow trail.

Nearing the end of our hike on the yellow Michel Sokolyk Trail.

On the La promenade de la falaise section. The light this time of year is so amazing. And to be hiking in shorts on Nov 8th!

One of the many rock ledge views along the trails. This view is of Lac Guy.

The first hiking trail called Voile de l mariée (which follows the waterfall) leads to this pretty little lake - Lac Guy. And in the fall - no bugs!

This would be a great destination for a beginner hike, and it's not exactly easy as there's an elevation gain so you'd feel like you overcame a challenge. Lots of pretty views along the way of the waterfall.

One of the less impressive sections of the falls, but easier to capture on camera.

Rivière Noire which runs between route 131 and the east border of the park. Very pretty river that you will see while driving to the park.

Sunset on day 2

Supper time. Noodle soup with candles!

Partners. A quick selfie while @toesalad strains snowmelt through a cloth to remove big chunks of detritus. The snow looks so clean when you scoop it but has a lot of plant particles in it. Let’s hope it’s mostly plant material!

After straining we’ll boil for tea or cooking or we’ll filter for our water bladders.
