Mira Provincial Park Field Trip

On June 9th, we went on a field trip to Mira Provincial Park. This day of activities and informtaion booths was set up by the Department of Natural Resources. Our tour guide, Tracey, works for Dept of Natural Resources in Halifax, and had never been to Cape Breton before!

Thankfully, we didn't require the services of CB Search & Rescue!
Ready. Aim. FIRE!
Here are some snapshots of our trip:
Our first station: Geocaching!
These firefighters were leaving on June 13th to fight the wildfires in Alberta. They told us about "Mountain Money"!

The race is on!
Nope. This wasn't lunch.
