Four of us have reservations for July 12 departure taking the boat ride to the Long Range Traverse trail head on Great Eastern Pond Newfoundland. We have been allocated 5 days to complete the trip. Interesting that they supply a Spot type device that has to be carried on this trip. Looks like I can get some time in on honing my map and compass skills. They also have a qualification exam and interview the day before departure. Only nine permits are given out a day for the traverse. $60 per person $$$$

Should be fun

Anyone on the forum have any experiance with this traverse? It's only 20 miles or so.
