Awoke to sunshine. Moved the trailer to site #11 for a better view of Killdevil Mountain and registered for one more night. Bought the Gros Morne Park Trail Guide at the Discovery Center on our way to “Green Gardens Trail”. Did the “short” hike, only 4 hours. The long hike would have taken 6-8 hours and required fording a river in two spots. Climbed about 1½ km through the Tablelands terrain which took us up about 60 m in elevation, then descended through forest to sea level, about a 200 m descent over 2½ km . We spent about 45 minutes at the coast where we explored sea stacks, a sea cave, basalt cliffs, rock pillars, wave-cut platforms and tidal pools. Returned on same trail. Out-of-this-world scenery.
