This episode starts with an interview of Adam Wilkins and Leah Alexander, the driving force behind the Split Rock and Troy's Trail in Lorneville near Saint John. They take me on a tour of the Musquash Head Lighthouse and we hike Troy's Trail and the Black Beach Trail in the Musquash Estuary Nature Preserve. They talk about how their group (Explore Lorneville Inc.) is working with the Nature Conservancy of Canada on fundraising campaign to save the Musquash Head Lighthouse, transfer land for conservation/preservation, and maintain & improve the trails in the area. Please help out and donate today!
