Soley Cove Flower Pot

I will never forget the first time I set eyes on the Soley Cove Flower Pot. This was in November 2020. Since that first discovery the signs of erosion cannot be ignored. This important Minas Basin landmark is a sight to behold, whether you experience it on the ocean floor rising high above you orContinue reading “Soley Cove Flower Pot”

Earth Day 2024 Free Guided Hike

Please mark your calendars! You do not have to be a geologist to be amazed by the coastal cliffs and sea stacks at Clarke Head. The cliffs in places are contorted into improbable shapes like something from a Dr. Suess drawing, are faulted against one another, and contain unusual minerals and fossils. This particular stretchContinue reading “Earth Day 2024 Free Guided Hike”

Nova Scotia’s Fifth Season Officially Over for 2024

Nova Scotia has a Fifth Season? Absolutely! Sugaring Season is the time the maple sap runs and the syrup producers work long hours to filter and boil down the sap into liquid gold, otherwise known as maple syrup. On our way to Amherst today we decided to swing by our favourite sugar bush to pickContinue reading “Nova Scotia’s Fifth Season Officially Over for 2024”

Wards Falls Woodland Hike

The trail to Wards Falls holds treasures to discover any time of the year. We were happy it wasn’t too muddy. The brook was gurgling gently as we navigated the trail of sixteen bridges, criss-crossing the woodland stream as it glistened in the sun. We even found some icicles in the shaded areas. There wereContinue reading “Wards Falls Woodland Hike”

I just returned from scouting Phinney Green beach and stash some water for tomorrow’s Eclipse Tour. What a glorious afternoon my friend and I enjoyed walking this vast beach in solitude.

Clarke Head in April

The day has been filled with typical April weather, sunshine and snow flurries, grey storm clouds and strong wind. Anne, Molly and I didn’t let the weather deter us from a brisk hike to Clarke Head. Thanks for joining me!

Ravenhead Wilderness Area Hike

A birthday is a great reason to hit the trail. It’s an even better reason to explore a trail less travelled. We headed past Apple River to embark on our 23.2 km excursion taking us through the woods to Polley’s Flats Beach. Cape Capstan with the Apple River Lighthouse was the perfect place for aContinue reading “Ravenhead Wilderness Area Hike”

Two Islands Beach Easter Sunday Walk

When the sun finally made an appearance after three solid days of rain it was time to finally head to the beach! I arrived just as the tide was turning. There was still plenty of time left to explore. Best of all: the beach was mine, not another soul in sight! It was my firstContinue reading “Two Islands Beach Easter Sunday Walk”

Soley Cove: Delight for Newbie and Repeat Hiker Alike

The sun accompanied these keen hikers for our special Wednesday afternoon outing today. Not many words are necessary to show how much the group enjoyed their time! Coffee time with Fundy Jewel treats in the sun was the proverbial icing on the cake. Soley Cove never disappoints. I am already blocking tour dates from JuneContinue reading “Soley Cove: Delight for Newbie and Repeat Hiker Alike”

Cape Spencer: A Hike Through All Seasons

Sharing a lesser known hike destination as a birthday gift was on the agenda today.
