A Hike up the Copper Mine Trail, Bay of Islands, Newfoundland and Labrador (by Peter Bull)
This past week I had the opportunity to hike the Copper Mine Trail with some friends from Alberta who are touring the province. I had the opportunity to snowmobile to the viewpoint at the end of the trail on the first day of spring this past year. Hiking to the top proved to be a little more of a workout.
Located near York Harbour in the Bay of Islands, the Copper Mine Trail passes through a variety of vegetation types as it climbs to its 2034ft summit at Blow Me Down. There we found yet another perfect lunch spot. The view out the bay and in towards Corner Brook is spectacular. My Albertian friends have no shortage of mountain hikes to take, but none of those combin with million dollar coastal views. We were even treated by seeing a big bull moose on our way up to the top. This was one hike that was undeniably enjoyed by my Albertian friends and no lees so by this Newfoundlander. I will have to do it with the rest of my family as it is certainly worth doing more than once.
