Fjord
What makes Western Brook Pond and Bonne Bay both count as fjords — and why one is fresh water and the other salt.
Trip guides throw around terms like "fjord," "the Tablelands" and "UNESCO World Heritage Site" without always explaining what they mean or why they matter locally. This is where we define them properly, once, and link back to them everywhere else on the site.
The Tablelands
The barren, orange-brown plateau of exposed mantle rock that helped prove plate tectonics.
Moose Exclosure
The fenced forest plots on Baker's Brook Falls Trail that show what the forest looks like without moose browsing.
UNESCO World Heritage Site
What the designation actually means, and why Gros Morne earned it in 1987.
Backcountry Permit
The separate permit required for overnight camping outside campgrounds — and when you actually need one.
