Michael Wejchert, Alden Pellett and I are on our way to Newfoundland for nine days. I’ve always been inexorably drawn to northern maritime areas. The juxtaposition of mountains and oceans in maritime Canada is beautiful.
Our overnight ferry yesterday from North Sydney, Nova Scotia was cancelled due to extreme wind (up to 110 mph! ). We decided to take a short detour to view some of the seaside climbing in St. Martin, NB, on the Bay of Fundy.
Despite the rain, which prevented us from climbing, the area was worth visiting. All of us agreed we would like to climb there in the future.

Have a great trip! I know exactly what you mean when you say you’re drawn to the “juxtaposition of mountains and oceans in maritime Canada.” Spot on. I’ve twice taken that ferry from NS to Newfoundland, once right before a north Atlantic hurricane barreled through. Beautiful area. Look forward to hearing how your trip goes!
Cheers, Pete
Thanks Peter. I’m looking forward to many more trips there in the future.
