		The alternative was a 2000 mile drive that included the rough roads across Labrador, a ferry across the broad St. Lawrence River, and the Atlantic crossing to Port au Basque, in order to return to Cow Head.
		The high spot of this enforced trip was camping in central Labrador, in a spruce forest carpeted with brown and gray lichen - pristine, totally quiet, and dimly lit by a moonless sky - a mind boggling experience.
