Walk Back In Time.....
Join local Geologist Ron Buckley for a leisurely “rock walk” (only back 2 million years!) along the Beach exploring the geological time-line and memorable landscape that is Cape Blomidon. How does ocean bedrock get on top of a sandstone cliff and keep Blomidon Park from washing away into the Minas Basin? Did Glooscap really sprinkle those random bits of amethyst, jasper and agate all over the beach? What is The Rock Cycle and why does it take millions of years? Why are new mountains jagged and old mountains rolling? Get all your burning geological questions answered. Sturdy footwear recommended. Meet at Beach Parking.
