I am attaching three photos of the Tablelands in Gros Morne National Park. The first two show views of a valley in the Tablelands. The third has a white dot that indicates how far up the trail I climbed.
I was there very early in the morning and the reddish light of the sun made the reddish rocks appear even redder. These rocks are actually remnants of the Earth's mantle that were brought to the surface during the time when two tectonic plates collided. The rocks are high in peridotite which doesn't support much plant life.
