Gros Morne: Walk on the Mantle

At Gros Morne National Park, you can walk on the Earth's mantle. This UNESCO site in Newfoundland features the Tablelands, a massive slab of rust-coloured peridotite rock forced up from deep within the planet. This barren landscape, where few plants survive, is a visible lesson in plate tectonics and stands in stark contrast to the park's lush, green fjords. #Canada #GrosMorne #Geology #Newfoundland 🇨🇦
