CTC Media Center - Outdoor Kouchibouguac, a Mi'kmaq word meaning "river of the long tides," became a national park in 1969, but its barrier islands arose nearly 15,000 years ago, when retreating glaciers left behind a long, narrow sand spit breached here and there by gullies.  You can also just stroll the beach or join one of the walks led by park interpreters, who explain how the sandy islands were formed and describe the life cycles of some of the inhabitants. Another outing provides a hands-on experience - accompanied by a park interpreter, visitors use nets or their bare hands to catch, and then release, rock crabs, snails, sticklebacks (a small fish) and other creatures living in the sheltered waters of a lagoon. www.gomediacanada.com /media/app/en/us/story.do?cat=experiences.outdoor&path=templatedata\ctcmedia\fullStory\data\en_us\NB\BarrierIslands   (1054 words)
