Bay du Nord River (Island of Newfoundland)

The pure waters of the Bay du Nord River dance a Newfoundland jig across one of the largest wilderness areas of Newfoundland. The river sweeps adventurous paddlers past barrenlands where curious caribou murk their passing, through innumerable rapids and quiet steadies" where countless brook trout, ouananiche (land-locked salmon) and Atlantic salmon wait, on down to the picturesque outport of Pool's Cove at the river's mouth. Moose, pitcher plants, orchids, the moist air of the deep boreal forest and the savory aroma of heather and Labrador tea - Newfoundland wilderness.
