Third Vault Falls: a snowshoeing expedition

A buddy and I though we’d put our new snowshoes to the test over the last couple of weeks.  We practiced up in our hometown leaving our mark in the snowy trails of Rockwood Park.  Then we decided to go for a road trip and headed to Fundy National Park.

We walked about 9.5 km round trip and checked out Third Vault Falls.  We should have taken the lack of tracks near the end of the trail as a sign but we made it all the way to the foot of the falls, ourselves falling more than once (mainly me, to be honest).

The trip was worth vigorous and fun.  Here are some photos I took at the destination.
