Good Morning #Canada
Today is Mountain Day in Japan, but Canadians have some pretty impressive mounds of rock as well. Did you know that Canada has the oldest mountain range in North America? At over 4 billion years old, the Torngat Mountains has seen some things. This mountain range, 300km long and covering 30,000 square km, is located on the Labrador Peninsula at the northern tip of Newfoundland and Labrador and eastern Quebec. Torngat National Park is open year round, but due to its remote location, it only gets 600-ish visitors annually. Visitors must be accompanied by armed Inuit escorts because polar bears are prevalent on the rocky shores. Getting eaten by a polar bear is likely too much excitement for a camping trip.
