Cape Broyle - more pics

Stan checking out the small waterfall in Shore's Cove. The falls flow out of Horse Chops Pond; the people along the Southern Shore have a way with picking interesting names for different features.

Hard to believe that rocks can be bent but there's a small syncline in the rocks of the Conception Group that consist mainly of siltstones and sandstones. The rocks are thickly bedded and the bend around a central axis is clear to see.

Dick checking out a cave. These caves weren't very deep but just having all that rock hanging over your head can be a bit un-nerving. There's always a chance a rock could come down on your head.

Here Jamie takes a shower while Dave, Dick and myself wait a turn. It wasn't a hot day but a cooling shower was welcome and in the absence of a shower I kept myself cool by dipping my cap in the water from time to time. Helps if you enlarge the picture and you'll see the water falling on Jamie.

There were a few opportunities to rock hop and and paddle around sea stacks.
