The Cabot Trail Crew

The Cabot Trail CrewWe’re a bunch of friends who all happen to work at a resort property in Baddeck, Cape Breton. We love the Cabot Trail and on our days off we like to get out and experience all the things there are to see and do!

Wes is the General Manager and loves to get out and golf the Fab Four whenever he can. He also loves hitting the amazing beaches all around Cape Breton with his wife and two year old son.

April is a number-cruncher by trade, but loves great local food. She also likes to get out kayaking, hiking easy trails and getting great photos of our beautiful landscapes and wildlife.

Hilda has lived on the Cabot Trail her entire life and we can’t think of a better ambassador for the Cabot Trail. She and her family spend time exploring little-known areas looking for great places to enjoy each others company.

Amanda and her young family love doing things together and you can often find them on day-trips throughout the Cabot Trail. She’s an avid amateur photographer who is never far from her trusty camera.

Chad is our resident CFA (Come From Away). He lives in the woods in a home he built and enjoys living off the grid. Chad and his other half love to find places to hike and explore that are far from the beaten path.

Debbie and her family also live right on the Cabot Trail and they love getting out of the house and camping all over the area. Debbie, her hubby and their two kids love hitting the beaches, swimming and exploring along the banks of the Margaree River

To say that Willena, her forest technician husband, and their two boys are avid nature lovers would be putting it mildly. They are often found gallivanting through the wonders of the Cape Breton Highlands camping, fishing, and trekking over trails.

I think of Pinterest as a wonderful tool for vision or dream boarding. For many of us, our dreams often include travel and adventure. And for those who are part of our Nova Scotia online community, those dreams include a Nova Scotia. And so begins our adventure with Pinterest.

The big camping experience last winter was spending a night in a yurt at kejimkujik national park. The only problem was finding an open weekend to book one of the two Yurts at the park. With time running out, we booked a single overnight in late March at the Eel Weir Yurt.
