Highway 138 ends at Kegashka. Technically it continues again much further along the coast near Labrador, but for this trip, the Fin sign at Kegashka was my end point. My trips don't always have a geographical end point, but I tend to appreciate the ones that do. It signals a time to slow down and …

It had everything that I've come to look for in a good trip: amazing views, spectacular campsites, relaxing yet active, and most importantly: being blown away. It was surprisingly good. So much so, that I …
