Whales of the Saguenay River

The Saguenay River is finale of the "classic adventure" from Rhode Island to Quebec, and it is certainly my favorite part. This time around the scenery was even more spectacular since the forest is now a spotted with the colors of deciduous fall foliage. Unfortunately, I was on duty through all the most photogenic parts of the river, so I have no pictures to prove it.

At the mouth of the river is one of the best whale watching locations in the world.
