Last Update March 3, 2005

Access is at the end of the road on Roberts Island. After turning off of #3 highway, bare right at the first fork and left at the second fork.  When you get to the end continue down the hill to the access point.  The other attraction in this area is the Goose Cap Trail.  Its parking is a bit hidden but the site is on the right, just after bearing right at the first fork in the road.  This site has marshes and a representative Acadian mixed hardwood forest.
