MINGAN ARCHIPELAGO
The 'Mingan Archipelago' is an archipelago located east of Quebec, Canada. It consists of a chain of about 40 islands.
Starting but 124 miles from the end of the road along the north shore of the St. Lawrence River (Le Fleuve), the Mingan Archipelago National Park Reserve of Canada spreads about 109 miles eastward as it dots the coastline with over 2,000 islands and islets. To the southwest a 9 to 10 hour drive away lies Quebec City. Due south across a 12 mile channel is Anticosti Island and below Anticosti another 25 miles is the eastern tip of the Gaspe Peninsula. To the east is a roadless coastline all the way to Labrador and Newfoundland. To the north are tundra, lakes, bog and rock. In late June it is still Spring.
